Now, I am happy to say that SuSE 8.1 now supports my Pentax camera (finally). When I plug it into USB the following happens:
Nov 20 13:15:07 nix kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1,
I can then mount the device and copy my photos off etc. I then unmount the device. The question is what should I do then? remove a module? issue some command? If I just unplug the camera the following happens:
Nov 20 13:16:22 nix kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 3, frame# 1003 Nov 20 13:16:22 nix kernel: usb.c: USB disconnect on device 3 Nov 20 13:16:24 nix kernel: Device not ready. Make sure there is a disc in the drive.
That is all normal messages. You don't need to do anything, unless you want to remove usb support. I use my usb only for a camera, so I don't bother to even start usb unless I want to connect the camera for downloading. My procedure? rchotplug start plug in the camera and wait for the beep to tell me it's found by usb mount the camera and download umount the camera unplug the camera rchotplug stop It could all be done in a bash script if you wanted to automate it. Starting and stopping hotplug loads and unloads the usb modules. -- use Perl; #powerful programmable prestidigitation
