There is no drivers in digiKam. All is done in background using libgphoto2 Your camera use PTP or UMS mode to communicate with computer ? Gilles Caulier I used a USB cable to connect my Kodac EasyShare DX7360 camera to a USB port. Prior to moving to Mandriva 2009 PWP I used PCLinuxOS 2008 MiniMe. In that distro, when I plugged in my camera using the USB cable and turned the camera on, DigiKam AUTOMATICALLY recognized it and opened a dialog window which displayed the contents of the camera and gave me an opportunity to select what I wanted to download. Then it would proceed to download the selected files and add them to DigiKam's database for viewing, editing, etc... Under Mandriva, when I plug in the camera and turn it on I get no response. Trying the "Import -->Digital Cameras --> USB Image" caused frequent crashing. When I manually configured my camera in DigiKam and then chose that configuration I can connect and download, but at no time is the camera detected as a USB device in KDE 4.1.2. Once I have accessed the camera using my manual configuration I can then use the "Import --> Digitial Cameras --> USB Imagae" and it gives me an error dialog with "Retry / Abort as the options". Does DigiKam no longer do automatic recognition of cameras? I used a USB cable to connect my Kodac EasyShare DX7360 camera to a USB port.

Does DigiKam no longer do automatic recognition of cameras? the automatic detection is done by KDE itself, not by digikam. Please try capturing a backtrace from a crash (with drkonqi or gdb). Also try the gphoto2 cmdline frontend, list all files: gphoto2 -L This backtrace appears to be of no use. This is probably because your packages are built in a way which prevents creation of proper backtraces, or the stack frame was seriously corrupted in the crash. (no debugging symbols found) This problem might be fixed in beta6 of digikam. Can you please try this version and confirm? Andi Jerry, It's important to have a fresh feedback here. Please try beta6 release with a recent libgphoto2 version Gilles Caulier Jerry, No news here ? Without a fresh feedback, we will close this file... Gilles Caulier Response from Jerry by private mail: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gilles, I downloaded the source for the beta and tried to compile it but my attempt failed because of missing libraries and files that I do not want to add to my system. I use Qt4 and Qt-Creator (replaced Kate) to write Qt based apps using qmake (to support projects that I wrote at work before I retired) to create the Makefiles from the project pro file without any problems, but I've never used the cmakelist.txt system that KDE developers seem to use. Sorry. Go ahead and close this issue. I can use Digikam the way it is and will wait patiently for future upgrades to resolve the problem. GG The crashes are hopefully fixed, a lot more in that area as well, and Jerry says that we wont get feedback in short term. Closing because we cannot do any more (and there are other reports in that area where work continues) |
