Now I have another problem where user "bobg" is not authorized!

[bobg@box10 ~]$ gphoto2 --get-all-files
*** Error: No camera found. ***

For debugging messages, please use the --debug option.
Debugging messages may help finding a solution to your problem.
If you intend to send any error or debug messages to the gphoto
developer mailing list <gphoto-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, please run
gphoto2 as follows:

env LANG=C gphoto2 --debug --debug-logfile=my-logfile.txt --get-all-files

Please make sure there is sufficient quoting around the arguments.

But the camera is detected:

[bobg@box10 ~]$ gphoto2 --auto-detect
Model Port

Nikon Coolpix S3100 (PTP mode) usb:001,004

This sounds similar to a scanner problem from a recent thread.

IIRC, no.
I had to modify udev rules.

I looked at that yesterday but don't see a way to fix the problem,
don't understand how to! I'm out of my range of abilities I guess?

Here is what I did:
http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2013-September/137284.html

I've simply created a script to change the permissions when I need
xsane. No doubt it will be different for Fedora 20 ...


Ok Michael, that apparently works. The only thing I had to change were
the codes for manufacturer and model. A test scan works without running
my permissions script. That's better than fooling with the permissions
as I did. However I was able to copy the documents I wanted with my lame
fix.

Perhaps googling gphoto2 and udev would give you the right formula.

Perhaps, I'll look into that, but I should not have to do anything other than yum install ghoto2. I snapped some snow photos this morning and found I had no application to extract them from the camera. I yum installed gphoto2 and eventually digikam out of desperation, neither worked as I indicated above.

I restarted this computer in F-19, installed gphoto2 and it worked as expected, no fiddling with peripheral stuff! Obviously something has gone wrong with my F-20 system and I am beginning to consider re-installing from scratch, that or just run an instance in VMWare ...

Thanks,

Bob
