I found a fix that worked, then probably after one of the updates or for whatever reason it didn't work anymore. Here's the fix anyway: You must have a file /etc/udev/rules.d/90-libgphoto2.rules To create one, as root cd /usr/lib/libgphoto2 ./print-camera-list udev-rules version 0.98 mode 666 owner root group users > /etc/udev/rules.d/90-libgphoto2.rules # one line. This used to work. Now, however, it doesn't anymore. I guess a system can use one of several methods for hot-plug devices, and the fix above is for udev. If I run gthumb-import manually at the prompt, I get this error message: process 2809: arguments to dbus_message_new_method_call() were incorrect, assertion "_dbus_check_is_valid_path (path)" failed in file dbus- message.c line 1074. This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library. D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace which I is about D-Bus, or maybe it's a problem with gthumb-import using D-Bus. I don't pretend to understand how D-Bus works, and how it interacts with udev, but perhaps the fix should be related to d-bus. Maybe someone can shed some light here. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
