(2nd try) ubuntu 12.04LTS: sometime won't detect my iphone4s!

[ping]

for unknown reason it works now:

sudofdisk -l

Disk /dev/sdb: 640.1 GB, 640135028736 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 77825 cylinders, total 1250263728 sectors

and still I have the same "not ready" thing, so that turns out to be not 
related...
