Re: gphoto install
No. I know that on the Mustek MDC800 camera, you (can?) use gphoto, set it up as a MDC800 (or MDC8000) camera, and for the path, use /dev/usb/mdc800 I know this works. I am not aware whether this camera can be mounted and accessed like a disk. But the point is, this camera is a serial-like-camera, regardless of whether you use a Standard Serial port or a Universal Serial Bus.

Re: gphoto install
I have a Olumpas C-3020Z camera, and a smartmedia reader by PNY. Both installed well when I installed suse 8.0, and both are USB. Both work great. As for editing, I don't use gPhoto, but I use Compupic from Photodex. They have a free Linux trial version, and for basic manipulation, it works great. For more detailed work, I use Gimp. Hope that helps some. Let me know if there are other specifics you need me to find out. Sorry I am such an old fart newbie. (Brain don't work so well anymore. Damn 70's..) :-) Harry G Now I am FAR from being able to be of much help yet, but I am willing to check certain parameters for you if you wish. I do know they both use a DOS filesystem, and use the device /dev/sda1 for the reader, and /dev/sdb1 for the camera. (These can be any port you choose).

This was the thing I used before. I see on the hardware page they say 'with some glitches' after the 990. Same as before. Still, I will try again and see if it is better. One of the glitches was that it deleted all the images from the camera for no obvious reason. Of course, my testing was with a set of junk images.

Re: gphoto install
Now I need to see if gphoto2 is finally supporting a Nikon CoolPix 990 over the USB. Last I checked it was iffy at best. It does not appear as a disk. Instead, there is a command set to control it. There are libs, but I think the USB stuff was not too good last time I tried. I just will say 'no' to running 'INSTALL'.

Re: gphoto install
I'm not at all sure what you're doing wrong, but its got to be huge. I just downloaded the gphoto tarball, and read INSTALL without a hitch. There is no mention *anywhere* of a 'install-sh' file. You build gphoto like most other software: ./configure make make install so where did you get the idea that you were supposed to run install-sh??

Re: gphoto install
You're right, except that the INSTALL file can't be accessed even to read. ./install-sh is apparently the install file, but when I give the command line ./install-sh or ./install-sh -s I get a no input file specified error. Just got to the point where I have been able to untar and install some tarballs using the ./install-sh -s command, but it looks I'm missing something in the command for an input file.

Re: gphoto install
There is an INSTALL file there. But, I went back and looked at the untarred list and found /gphoto2-2.0/install-sh which is the install file. After changing the directory to /gphoto2-2.0 I tried to run it with ./install-sh -s and get a no input file error message. I hgaven't been running tar.gz files long and I keep running into this no input error.
