I've applied some comments and questions if you could answer them it would enlighten me to better understand this wonderful operating system. thanks again for your help:-) Sandor On Fri, 2002-12-13 at 21:59, Thomas Dodd wrote: > > > sandor.suta@bredband.net wrote: > > >Both no and yes, it depends how I turn the camera on and the computer. > >In the first case I have the computer turned off and I plug in the camera and turn the camera on > >and after that I turn on my computer and let it boot in a normal way with the camera plugged in and the power turned on. > >And now when I have logged in, I can mount my camera, when I am turning the camera off, the line "/dev/sda1 /mnt/camera auto noauto,owner,kudzu 0 0" in fstab is removed and added again when I'm reconnecting the camera.

OK, I did that and it worked!? Thanks, I dont know but earlier a cdrom2 appered with the same caracteristics as cdrom1 (/dev/scd0) when connecting the camera and disappered when disconnecting...strange but I have done some updating from redhat since then.
