Hi Brad, It looks to me that there's something going wrong in the code in Shotwell that matches up the camera's address on the USB bus with the gphoto2 address (which is what we need to use to communicate with gphoto2, which talks to the camera).
There's a few things we need you to do to diagnose this problem. First, from the console, run Shotwell like this: $ SHOTWELL_LOG=1 shotwell With Shotwell running, plug in the camera, wait for a ten seconds (presumably Shotwell won't show it), and then unplug the camera. Exit Shotwell. Then find this file: ~/.cache/shotwell/shotwell.log We need this log file. Second, run this command with the camera plugged in: $ sudo lsusb -v > lsusb.txt Third, run this command with the camera plugged in: $ udevadm info --export-db > udev.txt Finally, run this command with the camera plugged in: $ gphoto2 --list-ports > gphoto2.txt (You might need to install the gphoto2 package in order for this last one to work.) Then send us all these files: shotwell.log, lsusb.txt, udev.txt, gphoto2.txt Thanks, -- Jim On Sat, Sep 10, 2011 at 8:10 PM, Brad Hermanson <[email protected]> wrote: > I compiled Shotwell 0.11.1 (and 0.11) on Slackware 13.37 and everything > went well except for the fact that it does not fully detect my camera (Kodak > EasyShare CX7430).
