Version: (using KDE Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources Using my own camera as an example: Typing 'camera:/' in the location bar produces 'camera:/Canon Digital IXUS 300/' in the dropdown list. The problem with this is that entering that url doesn't work. The url needs to have '://' to work. Typing 'camera://' in the location bar doesn't produce any autocomplete, and just hitting enter doesn't work either. The only thing that makes it work is to use the first variant and edit the autocompleted line. After that, things seems to work well. This might be related to the (closed) bug #44201
i can reproduce it on KDE 3.0.4. however this appears to be a konqueror problem in my opinion, who does this auto completion.
Konqueror doesn't produce autocompletion, it merely shows what was previously entered. furthermore camera:// should handle camera:/ if that has no other useful meaning. its unlikely that camera:/ ever needs a hostname for example.

Is this bug still present in a recent version of KDE, such as 3.5.8 or KDE 4.0 RC 2?
Heh.. you had me pull out my old camera.. but I couldn't make it work properly (except using gphoto2 from the command line as root) so I can't really say, I'm afraid. Autocompletion, using KDE-3.5.8, seems to repoduce almost exactly as it worked five years ago. The difference being that "camera:/" now doesn't autocomplete at all. "camera:/"<ENTER> gives me a virtual folder with the name of the camera "camera://"<ENTER> gives me "/", ie the file system root (huh?) Beyond that, I couldn' test it, as camera communication didn't really work. I doubt this is in either way important anyway. Most cameras these days tend to be mass storage based, making gphoto2 (and thus kio_camera) less important. WONTFIX makes sense to me.
Closing as per suggestion in comment #5
