Dear All Just recently I decided to get hold of a SanDisk Image Mate so that I could download images from my Olympus zoom C-960 into my desktop SuSE 7.1 workstation... http://www.sandisk.com Where I've come unstuck is telling Gphoto where the new port is to download images to my PC. The Image Mate plugs into the parallel port which I think is LPT1 ? What do I tell Gphoto to look for ? Is it /dev/ttyS1 ? When I tell it to download from LPT1 it says ... " Please check the permissions (see the manual). When I try to look at the manual Gphoto just peels off the screen. So, so the parallel port COM2 and what should I tell Gphoto to do ? Thanks -- Richard
I have the USB version which maps to /dev/sda1 iirc Im unsure about where the parallel version maps to. dids

I've mapped it to /dev/lp0 and then I've done 'chmod 0777 /dev/lp0'. Gphoto now finds that port. However, when I try to download the images I am asked to open a directory and /dev/lp0 isn't one of them. Anyone know how to get Gphoto to download from lp0 ? Thanks -- Richard
