That's helpful. Thanks. I looked up my camera on google and found how to get gtkam working which required installing gphoto2. I spent a little time getting that to work. I should have just plugged it in as all I needed to do is mount it. Can I ask how you manage your photos? I was thinking about updating your hotplug script to mount the camera, figure out unique file names (using the jhead package) and they copy any new images from the camera to some standard directory on the local drive. Then umount the camera. That way all I need to do is plug in the camera to sync the photos. I'm also looking for any easy and fast way to (graphically) crop the image into a 1.33 ratio image and then scale it down to 640x480. Gimp works ok, but it's a few steps and I need to do it with a bunch of images. I don't normally like file managers, but using Endeavour2's image browser is helpful. Plus it's a drag-n-drop into gimp. Any other cool tools. (I use icewm.) Anyway, I'm new to the digital photo world so I'm curious how others manage their photo collections on linux. -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
