Anyone know of some type of program I can use to look at photos on my digital camera. Ive already tried with gtkam

I'm not sure if this will help you out or not, but this is what I do with my Sony Digital8 HandyCam (is a video camera that takes digital stills). It has a USB lead and uses a memory stick, so ...

1. mkdir /mnt/digicam (you'll need a mount point)
2. chmod a+r /dev/sda1 (change permissions to access the device)
3. ln -s /dev/sda1 /dev/digicam (make a symbolic/soft link)
4. Edit /etc/fstab and add line: /dev/sda1 /mnt/digicam auto auto,user 0 0

Now, once this is done, when I want to view photos on my memory stick I can mount the camera (i.e. mount /mnt/digicam) and either cd to the correct file directory (i.e. cd /mnt/digicam/dcim/100dcf <-- I think, this is using my human memory ) and can download onto my hard drive or view using GQView on the stick itself.

Hope this helps.

is it a picture camera or a movie camera? If your camera is a picture camera, most probably you can see your camera contents by typing camera:/ in your konqueror address bar. And if your camera is a video camera, it would be detected as an external drive and it would be visible at /dev/sdaX where X is any digit as per the number of external usb storage devices. U can then use the previous response to mount that drive. If your camera is a dvd camera, then you will need to finalize the disc, before you can really access it.
