digiKam from Fedora Extras is installed and seeminly working OK. I found my camera in the dropdown within digiKam's Camera, Add Camera menu. However either normal or PTP mode triggers an error message box that says "Failed to connect to camera. Please make sure its connected ..."
So I read somewhere that I should look in /proc/bus/usb/devices to see if the camera was in there. It is here's part of that file:
T: Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=04 Cnt=01 Dev#= 20 Spd=480 MxCh= 0
D: Ver= 2.00 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=ff Prot=ff MxPS=64 #Cfgs= 1
P: Vendor=04a9 ProdID=30ee Rev= 0.01
S: Manufacturer=Canon Inc.
S: Product=Canon Digital Camera
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=c0 MxPwr=100mA
I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=ff Prot=ff Driver=(none)
E: Ad=81(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 512 Ivl=0ms
E: Ad=02(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 512 Ivl=0ms
E: Ad=83(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS= 64 Ivl=64ms
Next I read somewhere that I should look at /var/log/messages . When I turn the USB connected camera on and off I see
Jan 1 14:13:50 localhost kernel: usb 1-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 8
Jan 1 14:13:54 localhost kernel: usb 1-5: USB disconnect, address 8
But I never see a /dev directory entry that even looks remotely like a camera. I was expecting something like /dev/sda1. My usb scanner shows up with this entry:
"scanner-usb-:proc:bus:usb:005:002"
So therefore without the knowing the directory entry /dev/sda , I cannot do the next step which is something like (I think!!)
Code:
mkdir /mnt/canon
mount -o uid=1000,gid=100 /dev/sda1 /mnt/canon
I've tried everything I can think of. Is there anything you can think of that I should try?
Thanks,
Larry :(
