When I connect my Fuji FinePix to my PC(Linux Mint Fluxbox 9 RC) it doesn't mount automatically. Nothing happens at all. No errors, no messages.
How can I mount it manually?

Re: How to mount a camera manually?
The easiest way I have found is to install a dedicated photo manager such as F-Spot. This will install the necessary libraries to detect cameras that do not present themselves as simple external storage devices. After installing F-Spot you can use the import tool to grab your photos. The important library is libgphoto or something like that... if I remember correctly.

If not run
Code: Select all
sudo fdisk -l
Code: Select all
Disk /dev/sdc: 63 MB, 63681024 bytes
8 heads, 16 sectors/track, 971 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 128 * 512 = 65536 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdc1 * 1 972 62188+ 6 FAT16
Anyway you can tell from that the device address for my camera/phone is /dev/sdc1, so I run:
Code: Select all
sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdc1 /media

Not quite manual --
Install gtkam
Edit ~/.config/Thunar/volmanrc
Change :
Autophoto=TRUE
AutophotoCommand=gtkam
Should now be automatic.
