Let's see if any of us can get to the bottom of this. I have a Kodak CX7530 Camera which takes excellent shots. On my Fedora Core 4 system I use Digikam to handle my photos. It worked perfectly until an upgrade from FC3 to FC$ and and upgrade to KDE 3.5.
After reading many forums I believe it was the KDE 3.5 that did it. I have recently upgraded to 3.5.01 but still my problem exists.
The problem:
Camera is recognized by USB. My dmesg output is;
Code:
usb 1-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 8
My lsusb output is;
Code:
# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 008: ID 040a:057c Kodak Co.
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 04a9:106a Canon, Inc.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
So USB detects and identifies but then doesn't do anything with it. It does not recognize it as a block device as /sbin/fdisk -l only sees my two harddrives. Nothing gets sent to dev/sda1 either.
Now if I use gphoto2 on the commandline then I get my pictures off the camera with --get-all-files however digkam will show a standard thumbnail icon (not the real picture thumbnail) and then error with

Failed to retrieve file 100_0650.JPG from camera

when I click on any thumbnail. No pictures will download from camera through digikam. Now since digikam is a front-end to gphoto2 this seems bizarre.
I also can't access the camera at all via Konqueror. It doesn't show up on any device.
The Request:
Is there some link from USB to gphoto2/digikam that is being missed? Is there a USB to Konqueror link that should be possible? What might KDE3.5 have broken? Is there any config file that could be modified?
Do you need any further information?
