Hi. Okay, my fiance' bought a Polaroid 640 PDC Plus camera for me for
Christmas. I downloaded Gphoto, and I'm trying to get it to work. The camera
takes pictures, I've got them stored on its memory stick. I hooked the serial
cable from the camera to 1 of 2 external serial ports I have on my 'Nix box. I
clicked on configure in Gphoto, and picked Polaroid PDC 640 (no plus model is
listed but this is so close?). I picked the first serial port listed (ttyS0)
which as reported by drakconf, turns out to be the one used by my internal ISA
Diamond modem. So I picked ttys01, and ttyS02, etc, etc, everything that was
listed in gphoto's drop down menu. Nothing has worked so far. When I pick
camera, download index, it always says downloading index, then index done, but
I have a gray screen in gphoto with no pictures. In my BIOS, my 2 onboard
serial ports are set to AUTO. From dmesg, here is how my serial ports are
listed:
ttyS00 at 0x03f8 (irq = 4) is a 16550
ttyS01 at 0x02f8 (irq = 3) ditto (apparently, this is my internal modem)
ttyS02 at 0x03e8 (irq = 4) ditto
So...how do I get my camera to work with Gphoto? Thanks! ;-)
