Gosh, I'm out of practice! In response to your suggestion I was running the usbids util for at least a couple of minutes, wondering why the 1G didn't show up when I plugged it in.
Yup, you're there ahead of me.
It ISN'T A USB DEVICE!
1G machines are Firewire only.

The build is the 1G2G specific version, and the code is within a #ifdef IPOD_1G2G anyway, so that shouldn't be an issue.
I'll post the patch on Flyspray, although I think greater minds are looking at a more reliable way to determine the HW version as the 'real solution. Edit: Patch is here: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/8778
@bidmead - bear in mind that you are now running an 'unofficial build', which is therefore not officially supported.

Sure. But I'm assuming that if this version check is the only diff from the official build, any bug reports that I may make will be valid.

I guessed it must be something like that. RB coders seem to know where their towels are... :-)
(currently listening to FLAC for the first time on this iPod!)

Normally bug supports in unsupported builds are just rejected (without checking in an official build), but in this case I think, yes it is fine, as it isn't really an unofficial build in the intent of the word :)
bidmead:
Just make this build official, why not?.
The new logic is simple, it checks out, and even if there is a philosophically more fascinating way of ascertaining whether to switch in the scrollwheel handling or not, I can't see that it'll make any functional improvement.
