"Error initializing camera: -60: Could not lock the device"
The workarounds for this bug all well known :
Before you use F-Spot, Shotwell, Picasa3 you only have to unmount the camera
or prevent the execution of /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfs-gphoto2-volume-monitor
I hope that this bug will get fixed as some of folks (where I replaced WinXp
with Ubuntu on their computer) don't
understand why the camera-icon is shown on the desktop (they love that!) but
that before you can use the
camera (in order to download photos) you first have to click away (due to the
unmount-operation) that icon.
When the camera-icon pops up and you click right, then you are allowed to open
the camera with Rhythmbox,
VLCPlayer, ... This does not make sense it all! I would rather expect to see
F-Spot, Shotwell, Picasa, ... here.
(Anyway, the Shotwell-people do have anticipated this bug, because Shotwell
allows you to unmount the camera
before downloading your stuff).
