As you'll see from:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/rhythmbox

Rhythmbox is a very easy to use music playing and management program
which supports a wide range of audio formats (including mp3 and ogg).
Originally inspired by Apple's iTunes, the current version also supports
Internet Radio, iPod integration and generic portable audio player
support, Audio CD burning, Audio CD playback, music sharing, and Podcasts.

So Rhythmbox with your ipod should work.

But if not, you can check for bugs at:

and see if anything matches your problem.
