Ok I managed to jailbreak. The problem came from my dock so I used my original apple dock connector and ok ! It's better to use this connector because some people seemed to have the same problem : no informations transmitted to the Ipod after entering the DFU mode

I find PwnageTool to be much easier than QuickPwn. Even thought QuickPwn is meant to be "Quick", it doesn't support all firmwares..
