Alan and David,
The following message is from the owner of the "Shark" camera and the
PCChips board which has caused all the excitement.

In that case, the problems seemed to be
firmly tied to the presence of a VIA-chipset motherboard. It was that
experience which convinced me to ask the camera owner to check his
hardware, this time around.

The SF.Net email is
y a known problem. If it is not, I am
hopeful that the owner might be willing to do some further testing. Me, I
find it interesting that he says 2.4.27 works for him with his camera and
his scanner, and 2.6.8 does not, though I do not claim to know the reasons
why that might be the case.

Today,
1. I tried the camera on my laptop, which is an old Dell Inspiron 7500. It
worked and downloaded photos with no data loss.
2. I decided that perhaps it is a good idea to try the other USB port on
my Athlon-VIA box. The camera worked then, too. I succeeded in downloading
11 photos. No probl
's chip but is something else undetected
until now, it would not be very nice to insult a hardware manufacturer
over nothing.
Right. So the first thing I do is to try to find more test machines...

SF.Net email is s
ras around the house. So now the problem is seen
to exist on two VIA boxes, and not to exist on one Intel box. I am not yet
ready to say that there is a trend, but it does make me wonder even more.

no idea what is meant by "(Wrong ID)".
So if anyone has an idea where the problem might be addressed, I am
willing to try to tweak something in the USB setup.

A possibility, yes.
Now I am just guessing, but on thinking about the matter I can see another
potential source of the problem:
Gphoto2 is a "userspace" program

Still not sure I actually succeeded in turning off hotplugging. What is
one supposed to do? Delete all references to it
I seem to be having some trouble in carrying out these instructions:

additional information which is desired. But for starters, I do not intend
to spam everybody with un-needed and unwanted, possibly extraneous
information. Ask me for what you need, and I will send it to you. Thanks

Well, excuse my slip of the keyboard. This board has a VIA KT133 on it.
Keep in mind that you are dealing with an absent-minded old geezer of a
professor at this end. And thanks for pointing out the mistake so someone
else does not get confused.

earance of command prompt. This time includes the
initialization sequence at the beginning and also includes parking the
sensor head at the end. Actual time for scanning is approximately 30
seconds (or less). Head parking takes a while, by its nature.
