Steve says he has an xD camera working fine, so my problem is probably either connecting to a hub, rather than direct to the mobo - and I'm going to pull the furniture out and try every available slot to test that - or the fact that I have another usb-storage device already attached. I wouldn't have thought that would be a problem, but I don't see anyone else saying they have that situation. I so also have an unrecognised scsi film scanner attached.

On my old Olympus (serial connection) you simply had to be in playback mode to download the pictures, so I'm assuming that it is the same on the FinePix. The only thing the camera manual says is that the usb mode must be set to dsc (pc-cam is the other option). This I have done. MCC reports seeing another unknown device, of which all it knows is that it is a bulk storage device. I presume this is the camera. That's all I know, really.

Re: [newbie] Digital cameras
Anne, for what it is worth, this is what I did in order to get the .jpg and .avi files off my Fuji FinePix A303 (early x-mas gift for the family!) All I had to load was usb-storage, the same other two you have loaded; usb-uhci and usbcore were already loaded - I have no idea about usb-scsi and why it is working for me without it. I created /mnt/camera as stated before (although I am not sure if this was really needed because after a re-boot I had /mnt/removable somehow also) and then while the camera was turned on and connected to the usb port I rebooted. I ran dmesg just to make sure after the system booted up and it did id the Fuji camera. Then I mounted the contents of the cameras memory; mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera (even though while browsing /dev I did not see sda1) and all the .jpg's and 1 .avi file I took with the camera were buried in a couple of sub-folders inside/mnt/camera I have been following the list here on this subject and would not have been able to get as far as I did with out all your help list members. I plan on using the script that someone provided earlier, but noticed I will have to update it to match my requirements. That is another day in the future. Not too sure if this is any help - just pointing out what worked for me. Good Luck.

I thought maybe the Services menu would list them and I would need to start them, but they don't seem to be there. I've no more ideas on how to go about this. I'm also very confused about how Mdk handles these special devices. I wrote to this list that I had lost my LS120 which had been sda, and it stayed lost for some considerable time (by which I had got desperate enough to start a paid Expert session, though that has not got me any replies), but coming back yesterday I find it is recognised again. There are some problems, which I'll tackle in another thread, but I can't understand what has changed. After all, I've been away and no-one else has been using the machine. So it begs the question How does a special device get recognised? What can be done to initiate this process? As I said earlier, my LS120 is sda, so I expect the camera will become sdb, but it's not there. Am I presuming wrongly? Should I be looking for something else?

Not at all sure what is going on in your system Anne - from your posts it would appear that SCSI emulation is working. Does /sbin/lsmod list scsi_mod and ide-scsi? The earlier tip about mounting the partition is important (/dev/sda1 or /dev/sdb1 rather than the device /dev/sda or /dev/sdb). My serial digital camera needs to be set to SETUP for downloading images. Does PLAY correspond to SETUP on your camera do you know? PLAY sounds correct; could mean playback. As for the error messages from your LS120 without the medium, that is probably normal. dmesg gives similar warnings when my JAZ disk is not loaded. Any type of drive supporting removable media should report the same when the storage medium is absent. Are you saying that the LS120 is not working any more or have you just now noticed the warning messages? Cheers Len Lawrence Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I thought maybe the Services menu would list them and I would need to start them, but they don't seem to be there. I've no more ideas on how to go about this. I'm also very confused about how Mdk handles these special devices. I wrote to this list that I had lost my LS120 which had been sda, and it stayed lost for some considerable time (by which I had got desperate enough to start a paid Expert session, though that has not got me any replies), but coming back yesterday I find it is recognised again. There are some problems, which I'll tackle in another thread, but I can't understand what has changed. After all, I've been away and no-one else has been using the machine. So it begs the question How does a special device get recognised? What can be done to initiate this process? As I said earlier, my LS120 is sda, so I expect the camera will become sdb, but it's not there. Am I presuming wrongly? Should I be looking for something else?

Re: [newbie] Digital cameras
Fuji Finepix runs fine using the usb-storage module. This is the way I configured a Fuji FinePix S602 to run under Mandrake 9.0 via usb A) Be sure you have the next modules loaded: usb usb-core usb-storage usb-scsi B) Create a dir to be monted: mkdir -m 777 /mnt/camera C) plugin (usb) the camera and: mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera And it should run, you will have the images in a directory inside /mnt/camera. When you finis, unplug the camera and umount /mnt/camera. Note: you can include the line: /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera auto,user,noauto,nosuid 0 0 In /etc/fstab to allow any user mount it. Also if you have a laptop yo can use a pcmcia adapter for the CompactFlash or StarMedia card used.

Re: [newbie] Digital cameras
Anne, I have dissabled supermount, due to the problems in 9.0, I did supermount -i disable and then my fstab file was changed in this way for the cdroms-cdwriter and floppy: /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom auto codepage=850,noauto,iocharset=iso8859-15,nosuid,ro,umask=0,user,nodev 0 0 /dev/hdd /mnt/cdrom2 auto codepage=850,noauto,iocharset=iso8859-15,nosuid,ro,umask=0,user,nodev 0 0 /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto codepage=850,sync,unhide,noauto,iocharset=iso8859-15,nosuid,umask=0,user,nodev 0 0 So I just copy the main contens of these lines; I don't know exactly the meaning of have in the same line auto and noauto, but my cdrom/cdrwriter and floppy run now fine. Perhaps some mandrake guru can explain this. Sorry, I can't explain why, just it worked for me.

Hey all, After some frustration with SanDisk and gphoto, I decided to download gphoto2 and libusb. I got it all installed and working perfectly for my digital camera. After difficulty reading the man page and the gphoto2 output, I decided to write a shell-script to make it easy. I wrote 2 scripts total, one to delete the contents of the card and the other to get the contents of the card (it'll even make a directory to save the photos into. The camget shell-script is attached should anyone desire it. Note it's a bash script and if anyone can suggest improvements, please let me know! :) James _ Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.com camget Description: Binary data Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie] Digital cameras, usb and devfs
Hi all, I've gotten way behind on my emails on this list. A while back (before Mandrake 8.1) there was some discussion of gphoto, gphoto2, creating and then directly mounting a digital camera directory, etc. I understood most of it. Now I understand that under LM 8.1, the new kernel and devfs there's a different treatment of the usb ports. I don't understand the new stuff. Let me get to the bottom line. I want to access my digital camera - Canon PowerShot S10 - and would prefer to attach via a USB port. Gphoto insists that I specify a serial port. I 've mucked around in the /dev directory and don't see anything that looks like a usb port. Would somebody please point me in the right direction? TIA.

Re: [newbie] Digital Cameras
Price varies depending on where you get it. MSRP is $1099 (but don't pay that!!) you can find them from many online resalers for $700-800 Not cheap, but this is a 4.1 MgeaPixel , 3x Zoom camera, with exceptional quality. I'm not even worried about getting gimp to recognize it. I can mount it as a scsi device, and just go get the pictures as a regular file. No sweat, no problems, no need to aquire the source. It's a USB device, so you need to run modprobe usb-storage to initialize the device. After that it's available to mount, with (in my case): mount /dev/sda1 -t vfat /mnt/cam From there, the files in the camera are available under /mnt/cam So easy it hurts. forget trying to get gimp, or gphoto to recognize the camera, it just doesn't need to! Ok.. With SOME cameras it does. Some cameras do require special drives to make them available. It's a failing of many of them. The Olympus S4040 does NOT. It makes life just that little bit easier. :) Cheers! Ric Hmm... I must like this camera, I sound like a fsck'ing salesman! :) Now I just need to get a good, inexpensive photo printer to go with it.
