I downloaded and installed the linux headers and image files linux-headers-2.6.31-02063112_2.6.31-02063112_all.deb linux-headers-2.6.31-02063112-generic_2.6.31-02063112_i386.deb linux-image-2.6.31-02063112-generic_2.6.31-02063112_i386.deb
using the directions outlined at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds. I used the mapping information to determine which mainline kernel to download (http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/info/kernel-version-map.html) 2.6.31-21.59 -->>> 2.6.31.12 After rebooting the system, I validated that I was using the 2.6.31.12 kernel. Once the kernel's version number was validated, I connected my SONY camcorder. After the camera was connected, I executed dvgrad and was again shown that the camera could not be found. The problem *still* exists when using 2.6.31.12. In order to use dvgrab, I am *forced* to use the sudo command. Not an easy or viable option for someone new to Linux. The camera should be mounted such that I do not need to use the sudo command. -- Unable to transfer digital video content from SONY camcorder to PC https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550010 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
