Version: digiKam: 0.9.1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux Everything was working fine last week, and then, when trying to download the picture of my camera, it says that digiKam can't connect to my camera. The weird part is if I clic on "detect camera" then I can see it. If I sudo digikam, then I can make it work. Here is the output on the command line. ---------------------- (Not working) aracine@aracine-maison01:~$ digikam X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 166 Major opcode: 146 Minor opcode: 3 Resource id: 0x0 Failed to open device X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 166 Major opcode: 146 Minor opcode: 3 Resource id: 0x0 Failed to open device aracine@aracine-maison01:~$ ---------------------- (Working) aracine@aracine-maison01:~$ sudo digikam X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 166 Major opcode: 146 Minor opcode: 3 Resource id: 0x0 Failed to open device X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 166 Major opcode: 146 Minor opcode: 3 Resource id: 0x0 Failed to open device Link points to "/tmp/ksocket-root" Link points to "/tmp/kde-root" X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 166 Major opcode: 146 Minor opcode: 3 Resource id: 0x0 Failed to open device X Error: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device 166 Major opcode: 146 Minor opcode: 3 Resource id: 0x0 Failed to open device Session management error: Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed kbuildsycoca running...

this is a problem caused by ubuntu update of udev... check launchpad
So this is not a Digikam bug, so it can be closed?
yes, like invalid (about digiKam of course) Gilles
Wow, that's quick :)
