Kodak DX4530 Sid kernel 2.6.8 home-rolled GNOME 2.6.x udev 0.042-1 (no custom rules) discover1 1.7.3 discover1-data 1.2004.11.09 gtkam 0.1.12-2.1 gphoto2 2.1.4-4 libgphoto2-2 2.1.4-8 gtkam detects the camera with no problems, and allows me to save & delete the images. HTH. Actually, I don't think that libgphoto2-2 cares whether udev or discover1 is installed. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson, LA USA PGP Key ID 8834C06B I prefer encrypted mail.
