Slackware- I cannot download pictures from my camera
Hi I am trying to get some pictures from my Canon and I dont know what its not appearing in the file manager.
I did look: And its connecting I did it by : lsusb Then create the rules file. Then try to mount by creating a folder in the mnt folder but it said is mount: /dev/bus/usb/002/008 is not a block device read some post on suggesting libgphoto I looked and I have installed libgphoto2-2.4.14-i486-2 Know how do I use it? I want to just download the pictures from my camera :-(, sometimes I feel that all in slack is a long task! :-( |
Connect your camera, open a terminal and use the command dmesg to see how it's detected...if you see something about /dev/sdb /dev/sdb1 or something like that...then it's /dev/sdb1 you should mount.
# mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/hd ..or you can do it the way I did it...got tired of the usb-cable and bought myself a cardreader ;) /Håkan |

I already create the rules so every time I connect it create the device name so you know how its called. This is not working I tried also: mount /dev/Camera /mnt/camera mount: /dev/bus/usb/002/009 is not a block device this is not the solution! |
Another command you can try is:
# blkid I used that before when I was having trouble connecting to my camera. |
Is your camera supported..
http://www.gphoto.org/proj/libgphoto2/ ..at the bottom of the page "list of supported cameras" Can you show us the rule you made. /Håkan |
What happens if you run the following commands with your camera connected and switched on?
Code:
gphoto2 --auto-detect |

What file system is your camera using?
Mine does not show up in a file manager because it's a PTP class camera, but it works fine with gtkam. There's a Slackbuild, if you want to give it a shot. |

/home/yourusername/Pictures So just substitute your user name for mine and you'll be good to go. |
