SUSE 10.0, KDE 3.5.2 level a. I got a new camera several weeks ago (Panasonic FZ30, if it matters). I end up rebooting a lot (more than Windows now) because so many (four or five) things automatically start up every time the camera is connected. There are a couple of camera-specific dialogs (DigiKam and something else), a couple of KDE Daemon windows - one that says "USB Mass Storage Interface" and shows a camera icon, and one that says "2.1G Removable Media" and shows USB thumbdrive or flash fob. Sometimes I can dismiss the ones that I don't want, OK the one that works (the USB Mass Storage Interface), and get a Konq window that lets me browse and transfer files from the camera to PC. Roughly three times out of four, however, several of the pop-up dialogs are just locked. Can't be OK'd, can't be Configured, can't be Cancelled. I end up killing stuff with KSysguard. If I want to connect the camera, I reboot and try again. Somehow, this seems to be sub-optimal behavior, though I could be wrong. By what part of the interface do I tell K-whatever to open only one dialog (one that will work) when I connect the camera? At least, how do I tell it to permit me to dismiss the ones that I don't want, without interlocking them all into uselessness? I'd prefer not to use Windows for the camera stuff. Thanks, Kevin
