What am I overlooking in getting my openSUSE 11.1 box to read my HFS+ formatted iPod's music library?

My HFS+ formatted iPod is most often attached to my Mac that is using iTunes 7.7.1. I can get the unit to mount read-only as a filesystem in disk mode. When I throw gtkpod and Banshee at it, both complain that they don't understand the database structures on my iPod. Is iTunes 7.7.1 really that new to gtkpod and Banshee?

I feel like I am missing something here. Any suggestions?
