Digital Camera Blues...
Hey Everyone,
I am a :newbie: to linux. I have used it for about 3 weeks now. I have a digital camera, a kodak easyshare. I went to the digital camera tool and i said detect and it said "USB PTP Class Camera" and its a USB Serial Bus port. I said "Apply" and an error poped up that said "Could not intalize camera" and at the top bar of the error box it says "Could not claim the USB device" Can someone Please help me? Thanks all, Bill :) |
Does anyone know?
Thanks. |
I have the same problem with the software and I still can not fix it. :mad:
But I can show you how to get the photos from the camera using the command line. :) First, make sure that the USB wire is plugged-in and that the camera is on. Then open a terminal window and type: Code:
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera When you are finished with the camera, don't forget to un-mount it. Code:
umount /dev/sda1 |
[root@pcp02479790pcs lilbill08]# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera
mount: you must specify the filesystem type [root@pcp02479790pcs lilbill08]# Whats this mean? PS. Thanks for your help Mathieu |
anyone?

It means that the mount command did not recognize the file system on your digital camera.
Most digital cameras use FAT32, so try this command instead: Code:
mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera |
Ok, thanks. Where do i go to access this pictures now? :D
|
Use the file browser to look in the /mnt/camera directory.
You should see the pics that are on your camera. |
