The cam is displayed as Nikon D70 PTP-Mode, if i plugin the cam. If i go to import-Dialoge, to fetch images, I got an "Connection Error" after 30 Seconds. Digikam 2.5.0 on Ubuntu Precise (12.04) Reproducible: Always
The most important part is libgphoto2 used by digiKam. All PTP driver are in this lib. I remember and old similar report about this problem. This have been fixed to update libgphoto2 and digiKam. You DK version is 2.5.0 which is pretty old. last 2.x release is 2.9.0. Last stable is 3.2.0. Gilles Caulier
It's the Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Version. This digikam Version is default there. libgphoto is 2.4.13
Could you test if this is valid with newer digikam and libgphoto2? If not installing to your regular system, then inside a virtual machine?
digiKam Version 3.4.0 Unter KDE 4.11.2 Work now. Ticket can be closed
