Kubuntu 13.10 kernel 3.11.0-12-generic Dolphin Version 4.11.2 Gwenview Version 4.11.2 Last update 16/10/2013 The system was unable to read from a PTP camera. The problem may be about permissions. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Log in as user. 2. Plug in and switch on PTP camera (Fuji F660EXR in this case). Actual Results: 3. Device notifier responds and gives the choice of Dolphin or Gwenview. 4. Dolphin show a Camera folder but is unable to open it. 5. Gwenview has a similar response. Expected Results: 6. View files and images 7. Open a terminal and start Dolphin with "kdesudo dolphin" 8. Plug in and switch on PTP camera. Device notifier responds as before. 9. Now Dolphin will open the camera files and Gwenview will view the images. 10. CLOSE Dolphin. 11. The sytem will continue to operate as expected as in 1 2 and 6 whenever the camera is plugged in, until the user logs out or the system is restarted.
I have the same problem but starting Dolphin with kdesudo did not bring back the camera access. Camera access worked prior to 13.10 upgrade to Dolphin in KDE 4.11.2
does "gphoto2 -L" work on the commandline? gphoto2 --auto-detect this will print usb:XXX,YYY then do (with XXX and YYY replaced): ls -la /dev/bus/usb/XXX/YYY getfacl /dev/bus/usb/XXX/YYY
The program 'gphoto2' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install gphoto2
Sorry my PCs been down with a Motherboard failure. Kubuntu / Dolphin - copy photyos from camera - Still not working after rebuild. Results of installing and running ghoto2.

Not what I wanted, but at least I can get them off the camera without going back to W*ndows.
Bugger, I could only see the previews with Digicam. It auto detected the camera, then was unable to attach. Viewed previews, failed to download the photos (crashed) Digikam failed. After camera detection. Failed to connect to the camera. Please make sure it is connected properly and turned on. Would you like to try again?
Still not working March 2014, - pretty poor.
Fixed in 14.04
thanks for testing!
