I have the same issue with a "KODAK EASYSHARE MINI Camera M200" camera on ubuntu 10.0.4 LTS (Lucid Lynx).
Accessing with nautilus sometimes works, but then copying all photos to hard disk will result in a hang after some files have been copied slowly with some bursts where speed is high, later showing an error that the copy failed. Then the camera needs to be disconnected and reconnected first, before it can be accessed again. Why the connection is so unreliable? When the camera is mounted, df doesn't show the mounted directory. Is it not possible to access it like a USB hard drive and then use shell commands to copy/move files? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/258083 Title: F-Spot - Error connecting to camera.
