Nokia E4600

[Branta]

Installed digikam.

I camera-->Add-->Auto-Detect[ed] an Olympus USB Mass Storage camera and it imports photographs fine.

My Nokia E4600 is a PTP and it does not connect.

I added it with Camera-->Add-->Auto-Detect but there is no connection to the Nokia when I try to import photographs using the same USB port.

I am the only user on this desktop.

There is no camera group.

What ID number do I use if I were to create a camera group in the Control Center?

No camera is listed at /etc/group

I prefer f-spot but that is another matter...

have you seen this:

haha it is you...

it could be related to an older issue (libs), i wonder if it is back again or still there.

That is outstanding you found me on ArchLinux too!

You are correct and the camera works on the laptop running ArchLinux after I was able to connect 'bob' to the camera group.

My question on LinuxMint forum is how do I do the same using their GUI.

Using a GUI I am able to create a 'camera' group but do not know the ID number that should be entered. The default number was 1001 and it may increment sequentially.

What do I do to have 'camera' authority?

What ID number should I use?

Or, can I edit /etc/group w/o using GUI?

you could use the same GID from arch linux used for group camera.

look in /etc/group for the camera GID.

I am thinking that the group camera should have been added by digikam when installed (or KDE or a lib...) like it was on arch, so just copy what arch did.

this sounds like a weird dependency setup that was missed by digikam.
