Weird error with Kodak CX6330 camera on KDE 3.5
I have a Kodak EasyShare CX6330 digital camera (my distro etc in sig). I took a couple of snaps and plugged it into a free USB port. I got two windows: SUSE Hardware Detection New Camera Detected Open with kfmclient openURL 'camera://USB PTP Class Camera@[usb:001,005]/'? [] Do Not Ask Again [Configure...] [Open] [Ignore] and USB Imaging Interface - KDE Daemon A new medium has been detected. What do you want to do? Medium type: Camera Open In New Window Do Nothing [] Always do this for this type of media [Configure...] [OK] [Cancel] Now the former one was there with SUSE 9.3 too, then SUSE 10.0 KDE 3.42 (original release) too. The latter only started with KDE 3.5RC1 and now comes with KDE 3.5 too. If I use the former, I get a neat tab under Konqueror from where I can access my images. If however I use the latter, selecting "Open in New Window", I get a tab in Konqueror with path system:/media/camera and containing a folder "Kodak CX6330". I click that, I get system:/media/camera/camera in the Location bar and see another icon "Kodak CX6330" but this one is not displayed using the folder icon but the generic file icon. If I click *that*, I get system:/media/camera/camera/camera in the Location bar and An error occurred while loading system:/media/camera/camera/camera: Unknown error Bad parameters Does anyone else running KDE 3.5 see this? Shall I file it as a KDE bug? -- Penguin #395953 resides at http://samvit.org subsisting on SUSE Linux 10.0 with KDE 3.5

I have the CX6200 of that.

I'm using the stock KDE for 10.0. I was wondering if you can actually copy the pictures from either of these clients to your hd or do you need an app like digiKam? {snip}

That's 3.42.

I was able to copy the pictures directly from Konqueror to my HDD. Konqueror displayed my images at camera://USB PTP Class Camera@[usb:001,007]/store_00010001/DCIM/100K6330 but beware - there will be minor changes in the exact address for your case. Clicking OK on the SUSE Hardware Detection kfmclient window will open a folder like camera://USB PTP Class Camera@[usb:001,007]/ which is then the root folder inside the camera storage. You will have to navigate therein to get your photos. I do not have either digikam or kamera installed. I prefer to directly handle my camera files. -- Penguin #395953 resides at http://samvit.org subsisting on SUSE Linux 10.0 with KDE 3.5
