usbmuxd

[Steven Stern]

Right after the upgrade, F13 saw my iPhone and offered to open Rhythmbox
or Nautilus.

Following subsequent upgrades, it just ignores the phone entirely
although it sees it appear on the USB bus.

check if user 'usbmux' exists!

So, as root, I just typed "usbmuxd" and now Fedora sees the iPhone.  It
appears that usbmuxd is misconfigured so it fails to start unless
started as root.
