Is gtkpod 0.99-4 incompatible wih USB 1

Hi,
I downloaded and installed this dotpup, connected up the ipod but was unable to mount it ( using MUT) Is this because I only have USB 1 on this (old) computer ?

http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Multimedia/gtkpod-0.99-4.pup (2.5 MB)

I am using Puppy seamonkey 2.11
TIA
