This might also mean that gtkam isn't included in 9.1 for some reason (don't know this for certain). Try searching for flphoto as well and see if it exists. Also, can you tell me which kernel rev your using? I believe your probably at 2.4.2x in that distro (uname -a will tell you this information). It might be as easy as finding the device your camera takes when plugged in and creating an fstab entry to mount that as a file-system. By doing that you'll be able to reach your photos by opening a folder in Nautilus when the camera is connected. USB Mass Storage devices, under the 2.4 kernel in Mandrake, normally take the first available SCSI device/partition (/dev/sda1 if you don't use any other SCSI/emulated devices). You might also consider upgrading to Mandrake 10. It seems to be a lot more user-friendly and has some interesting features and fixes. For instance, newer kernel support, supermount actually works well and KDE3.2 as well as lots of newer app versions. For the avid Windows user Mandrake is a great choice. I've migrated numerous hard-core MS users to it and now you couldn't pay them to go back to Windows. _______________________________________________ PDXLUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://pdxlug.org/mailman/listinfo/pdxlug
