Description Krisztian Vida 2006-10-01 23:39:28 UTC 
Version:           0.8.2-rc1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.4)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages
OS:                Linux

The Kodak Easyshare Z612 digital camera doesn't work with digiKam. I can get the list of the files on the SD card, but there are no preview images, and I get an error message when trying to download anything. 
The camera however seems to work with gthumb, which also uses (as far as I know) gphoto to interact with the camera.

what does autodetect show?
Comment 2 Norbert Nemec 2007-01-07 12:50:56 UTC 
For me, it shows "PTP/IP Camera". Otherwise same symptoms as for Krisztian.
Comment 3 Krisztian Vida 2007-01-07 13:31:22 UTC 
Since that I could manage to get the camera work, with editing 
/etc/udev/rules.d/45-libgphoto2.rules
and adding a line 
SYSFS{idVendor}=="040a", SYSFS{idProduct}=="059d", MODE="0660", GROUP="plugdev"
to the file. The vendor and product IDs are from the output of lsusb.

without the permission stuff you should not even have got a filelist.

but if it works now, its fine by me.

libgphoto2 2.3 contains the camera directly, so no further additions
will be necessary
Comment 5 Marcus Meissner 2007-01-07 13:52:59 UTC 
reporter says its fixed
Comment 6 Krisztian Vida 2007-01-07 13:57:04 UTC 
Did this workaround help you too?
