The most recent iteration is at:
http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-patches/2008-May/054483.html

It should still apply cleanly, since the last patch touches
wineserver, you have to run tools/make_requests from the top of the
wine tree to update all wineserver related files.

I added wine-devel to CC since lots of people asked me about it.

The downside is that it still doesn't work 100%, for some reason there
is a huge delay every time the ipod is used.

How to use it:

Set windows version to vista
Install iTunes
Mount the ipod
'wine net start "ipod service"'
Wait 10 seconds or so
start itunes, it should take 3 minutes instead of instantly. (From the
delay above)

There is a race condition if the ipod service isn't started before
itunes is, resulting in the ipod not being found. Might be a wine bug,
but I'm not 100% sure.

Cheers,
Maarten.

Cheers,
Maarten

Did you try setting winver = vista?

What's the status of these patches? None of them have made it in yet...
