Actually I did: "The camera is a Cannon EOS..." so it's a digital SLR and not a smartphone.
that you did. my chemo brain really messed up on that one. ;-)
it has been a while that i last connected to a camera, so i am fuzzy on detailed differences. but, as i recall, camera i connected to did not auto connect, but it did show in media and that is how/where i pulled photos from.
I'm running an up-to-date CentOS 6 and when I plug the camera in to a USB port and type:
$ lsusb Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:0024 Intel Corp. Integrated Rate Matching Hub Bus 001 Device 027: ID 04a9:30ef Canon, Inc. EOS 350D (ptp) Bus 001 Device 004: ID 043d:011d Lexmark International, Inc. Bus 001 Device 005: ID 1058:1100 Western Digital Technologies, Inc. MyBook Essential Edition 2.0 (WDH1U) Bus 003 Device 002: ID 051d:0002 American Power Conversion Uninterruptible Power Supply Bus 002 Device 017: ID 093a:2510 Pixart Imaging, Inc. Optical Mouse
So it is recognized and auto-mounted.
next, i open konqueror file browser, open /media and i see;
/media / 37EF-0802 |> .android_secure |> .dataviz |> Android |> bluetooth / DCIM |> .thumbnails 100ANDRO / Camera [ ] IMG_1234321_4321231.jpc [ ] IMG_1234321_4321232.jpc [ ] IMG_1234321_4321233.jpc [ ] IMG_1234321_4321234.jpc [ ] VID_5678765_8765671.mp4 [ ] VID_5678765_8765672.mp4 |> LOST.DIR |> media
I'm using Nautilus and the camera shows up under computer but when I try to open it I get the error message I noted in my original post.
i do not have nautilus installed, so i can not test it with a cellphone to see how/where a cellphone would show.
try setting nautilus to 'details' and 'show hidden'.
does camera show under media similar to what i show above?
another thought, open a terminal, enter 'mount' to see just how/where camera is mounted. if it is mounted as a '/dev/';
~]$ mount|sort devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620) /dev/sda1 on /hdd/sda/01 type fuseblk (rw,allow_other,blksize=4096) /dev/sda2 on /hdd/sda/02 type fuseblk (rw,allow_other,blksize=4096) /dev/sdb1 on /hdd/sdb/01 type fuseblk (rw,allow_other,blksize=4096) /dev/sdb3 on /hdd/sdb/03 type ext4 (rw) /dev/sdb5 on /hdd/sdb/05 type ext4 (rw) /dev/sdb6 on /hdd/sdb/06 type ext4 (rw) /dev/sdc1 on /boot type ext4 (rw) /dev/sdc3 on / type ext4 (rw) /dev/sdc5 on /home type ext4 (rw) /dev/sdc6 on /hdd/sdc/06 type ext4 (rw) /dev/sdc7 on /hdd/sdc/07 type ext4 (rw) /dev/sdd1 on /media/37EF-0802 type vfat \ (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks,uid=500, \ gid=500,shortname=mixed, dmask=0077,utf8=1) none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw) proc on /proc type proc (rw) sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw) tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs \ (rw,rootcontext="system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s0") ~]$
is it 'vfat'? do you have ability/software installed to view 'vfat'? such may not have been installed in your current system.
i would venture to say that all cameras and cellphones are 'vfat' so that they are oos compatible.
