OK. I can get digikam to import from the card with a reader thingy. It took me a while, some hair pulling, a few threats of using a hammer but I got it to name them like I want. So, in the meantime I can get my pics. Thing is, to get to my card, I have to about disassemble the camera. I have to remove the mount for the tri-pod, the bottom and the battery to get it out. Well, it gives me a good excuse to charge the battery. Thing lasts for months on a charge tho. That battery is really long lasting. I still want to get gtkam fixed tho. It's much faster and simpler for me. Digikam has lots of bells and whistles I don't need. Dale :-) :-) P. S. For everyone else, never a crash or problem reading the card in the card reader thingy using the exact same cable. Worked like a charm. It seems USB just does not like cameras. -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words!
