Here's what I do. Open a terminal, become root, run "dmesg", plug in the camera, turn it on, run "dmesg" again. You're only looking at the last few lines. Your camera is likely /dev/sda. "mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/???, rsync /mnt/???/dcim/nikon???/*.jpg /home/me/pics/, chown -R me /home/me/pics. You can also rsync as a normal user. Read permissions on the device may be limited depending upon your distro.
Replace the ??? with actual names. Your file structure on the Nikon is like I described. Use tab completion if you're trying it this way. For instance "rysnc /mnt/???/dc<tab> will automatically get you "dcim/", then <tab> again to get the directory with your pics. --- Ron LeVine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Greetings all, > > I have a Nikon Coolpix 2200 camera which is supposedly > supported by > Gphoto.
