I have the same problem. I'm using a Kodak DX6490. I get the error message "An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not lock the device'): Camera is already in use." and the dmesg: [ 4607.780064] usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 [ 4607.985085] usb 3-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 4613.384242] usb 1-4: usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd gvfsd-gphoto2 rqt 192 rq 1 len 1000 ret -110 [ 4617.508922] usb 1-4: usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd gthumb rqt 128 rq 6 len 1000 ret -110 [ 4630.824063] usb 3-1: USB disconnect, address 2 [ 4631.314126] gthumb[19626]: segfault at 1 ip b78fa892 sp bfe99330 error 4 in libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.1400.4[b781e000+395000]
I could use the card reader but I had some pictures on the internal memory. I was able to get the photos off the camera by partly following the workaround at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gthumb/+bug/287689: In Removable Drives and Media Preferences (System > Preferences > Removable Drives and Media > Cameras > Digital Camera), uncheck the Import digital photographs when connected. I then unmounted the camera in Nautilus when I connect it. However using "gphoto --import-photos" on the command line still didn't work. However adding a sudo in front of the command enabled me to import the photos. Now trying the command again it is not working now. I get the error "An error occurred in the io-library ('Unspecified error'): No error description available" and dmesg: [ 7809.352154] usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 15 [ 7809.570980] usb 3-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 7841.184055] usb 3-1: USB disconnect, address 15 [ 7871.512116] usb 3-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 16 [ 7871.729874] usb 3-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice -- Ubuntu 8.10 can't mount digital camera showing a window popup message: -60 could not lock the device message https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
