Well, if you are running KDE, you should get a new desktop icon when you plug it in. From the CLI, there should be ether /mnt/removable or /mnt/camera with the device already mounted on it. If not, you could try:On Tuesday 29 Mar 2005 09:39, Mikkel L. Ellertson wrote:

Easy fix. As root, run "mkdir /mnt/cdrom". All will be good.
I broke this when I had you change how /dev/hda6 got mounted. It may
have broke a couple of other things. The reasion is that the mount
points for other things must have been created after hda6 was mounted on
/mnt. With /dev/hda6 no longer mounted there, then mount point is
missing.

Fixed now. I can mount CDs and see photos, and play music. Yes - I have
sound.
Thanks Rosemary
Life is good. I guess you are not using ALSO for your sound. This makes me wonder why it was trying to start. I guess it could be that the last time you ran harddrake it changed something in the sound config, so that ALSO was not handling the sound drivers any more, but left it still trying to run. Not a good thing.
Is you are fealing brave, you could try plugging in your USB card reader, and seeing if it works now. It wouldn't susprise me if it did.
Mikkel
Not sure what to expect as have only used it in Windows where a dialogue window comes up with options (once it is plugged in with card in), and the green light on the card reader flashes when the photos are being uploaded.
I went into gwenview to see if I could see anything - couldn't, but my process could be incorrect. Don't know if this helps or not
[EMAIL PROTECTED] etc]$ cat sysconfig/hotplug # This file contains defaults for hotplug # # HOTPLUG_RC_$SUBSYSTEM controls whether subsystem is started by # hotplug rc script ("cold plugging") # # SUBSYSTEM currently is usb, input, ieee1394, scsi.
HOTPLUG_RC_usb=yes [EMAIL PROTECTED] etc]$
I may just need to learn to mount it?
Rosemary
mkdir /mnt/camera mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera
If that does not work, then run "usbview" and see if it is being detected...
Mikkel
Don't know if this has been mentioned or not, but make sure the camera is in 'Play' mode as well. That was my problem and as soon as I flipped the 'Play' switch, FLPhoto plopped an icon on the desktop and Digikam and GwenView were happy little campers.
Sometimes it's the simple things that make all the difference.
Good Luck Rosemary!
