 Posted: Tue Dec 28, 2004 12:50 am Post subject: PowerShot A70 and usb [Solved] |
 |
|
I'm trying to get the canon Powershot A70 working on my computer. I already have an external hard drive mounted via usb2 with four partitions, and this works fine.
I'm using libgphoto2 with the 2.1.3-r1 ebuild, because I read the newer ones don't work. it appears that gphoto2 and gtkam can't detect the camera. When I run gtkam I get this error:
| Code: | | ** (gtkam:10166): WARNING **: Could not find 'P' in port info list (Unknown port)! |
running gphoto2 --auto-detect lists absolutely nothing, but the --list-ports command shows the usb Universal Serial Bus as "usb:".
Also, the output of dmesg when I plug the camera into the usb port is:
| Code: | usb-storage: queuecommand() called

also my fstab looks like this:
| Code: |
# NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.
/dev/hda1 /boot ext2 defaults,noatime 1 2
/dev/hda3 / ext3 noatime 0 1
/dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hdc /mnt/dvd iso9660 noauto,owner,ro 0 0

#/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto 0 0
#/dev/fd0 /mnt/camera auto noauto,rw,user 0 0
# NOTE: The next line is critical for boot!
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
# glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for
# POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink).
# (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will
# use almost no memory if not populated with files)
# Adding the following line to /etc/fstab should take care of this:
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0
#none /proc/bus/usb usbfs defaults 0 0 |
If anyone knows what's going on, I'd appreciate it.

I reconfigured my kernel with
| Code: | | [*] Preliminary USB device filesystem |
and now I can detect my camera. This was a lot of help:

However, when I try and list the pictures in the camera, or get them, gphoto2 just sits there. I'm not sure what's going on now. When I plug in the camera dmesg says:
| Code: | usb.c: USB disconnect on device 00:0c.0-3 address 10
hub.c: new USB device 00:0c.0-3, assigned address 11
usb.c: USB device 11 (vend/prod 0x4a9/0x3073) is not claimed by any active driver.

You cannot mount your a70.
The only way to approach it is via gphoto2.
Some tips:
make sure you have "gphoto2" and "exif" in your USE flags.
Check /etc/hotplug/usb/usbcam-gphoto2.usermap for the correct entry (A70)
Check the hotplug setup scrips and permissions (they can be a pain!).
Example scripts are in /usr/share/doc/libgphoto2/linux |

Thanks, I had exif and gphoto2 in make.conf already, but I finally figured out what was going wrong.
First I emerged the latest versions of gphoto2 and gtkam, then I did an emerge unmerge libgphoto2, and installed the cvs version of libgphoto2. That fixed everything, and now I can grab all the pictures off my camera. |
