Walter Kramer indicated above that the SD card reader solution didn't work for him.
I just picked up an SD card reader, a "USB ALL-IN-ONE FLASH CARD READER" http://factorydirect.ca/catalog/product_spec.php?pcode=CA2300 I tried it out on Hardy and it works fine, as does my Panasonic DMC-FZ2 camera. I tried the reader out on Intrepid Live CD (which is "original", no updates applied) and it works fine there as well even though the camera is not recognized. This reader works with four different SD card formats. The packaging specifically indicates that it is Linux-compatible, as well and Mac and Windows. The unit is Chinese in origin and, humourously, the brand name on the packaging is "Enjoy Technology, Enjoy Life". For those people who tried an SD reader and found it didn't work, the problem may have well been the type of SD card reader itself. I should note again that I don't consider the SD card reader a solution to this problem - there is no good reason why a camera should work on Hardy and not on Intrepid, but this "stop-gap solution" may at least allow people to get their photos downloaded while this problem is addressed, since it seems it will not be a quick fix. -- Ubuntu 8.10 can't mount digital camera showing a window popup message: -60 could not lock the device message https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
