[Bug 713838] Re: gthumb fails camera import and then loads an attached hard drive
As a work around, I am using Shotwell to import from my camera. It does a good job and allows me to erase from the camera after importing. I am not crazy about the way it organizes the imported pictures by date, several layers deep. I just tell it to save to my desktop and then move the pictures around to where I want them from there. I still use gthumb as my basic photo editor when I don't want to fire up gimp. For actual picture managment, I use Picasa 3.0 installed from the Google testing repositories. This is a truly amazing application. http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/ppas/13 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gthumb in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/713838 Title: gthumb fails camera import and then loads an attached hard drive -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 713838] Re: gthumb fails camera import and then loads an attached hard drive
What version of gThumb is this (check in Help About)? It could be that the old importer script is still present somewhere on the system, and it is unmounting the gvfs mounts (gvfs-mount -u ~/.gvfs/gphoto2*). Old versions of gThumb (2.10.x) conflicted with the gvfs/gphoto backend, and had to umount those gvfs mounts. The new versions (2.12.x) are compatible with the gvfs/gphoto backend, and unmounting things would actually be harmful. So, look for some helper script that might be unmounting things. I don't actually use Ubuntu, so this theory could be all wrong... - Mike -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gthumb in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/713838 Title: gthumb fails camera import and then loads an attached hard drive -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

ok, but where actually was the helper script?

Make sure there is no mount stuff in the output when you execute this command: [mjc@xena ~]$ grep -i exec /usr/share/applications/gthumb*.desktop /usr/share/applications/gthumb.desktop:Exec=gthumb %U /usr/share/applications/gthumb-import.desktop:Exec=gthumb --import-photos %U - Mike -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gthumb in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/713838 Title: gthumb fails camera import and then loads an attached hard drive -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 713838] Re: gthumb fails camera import and then loads an attached hard drive
OK, I got it to work. Based on your comments, I changed the command in the menu for gThumb Photo Import Tool to: sh -c 'gphoto2 ; exec gthumb --import-photos' and that did the trick. Apparently you can't mention anything about gvfs any more. Thanks for the clues. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gthumb in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/713838 Title: gthumb fails camera import and then loads an attached hard drive -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Paolo, you need to right click Applications the select Edit Menus. In the resulting window, select Graphics on the left side and then on the right side, right click gThumb Photo Import Tool. Select Properties and in the resulting window, change the command in the Command box to read: sh -c 'gphoto2 ; exec gthumb --import-photos' It's easiest to just blank out the old command and paste in the one I wrote above. Once the new command is in the box, just click Close and close out of the menu editor. If your camera is already connected, disconnect it. Then the next time you plug it in and set it to upload, everything should work as before. Some of the choices in the new version of the import tool have been moved to the Preferences button, so look at that once it runs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gthumb in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/713838 Title: gthumb fails camera import and then loads an attached hard drive -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
