Hi,
I just want to drop a short note how to get the Sony DCR-PC1000E Videocamera with build in Digitalcamera function working with Linux. The solution is simple, but it took me about 4hours to realize that I was doing the wrong thing all the time...
Be sure to have the usb-storage module loaded/compiled into the kernel.
Connect the camera to the computer via the usb-cable
Choose "MULTI CONNECT" from the menu (do not choose "MEMORY STICK")
Thats it... just mount it like you would any usb-stick/scsi-harddisk.
I don't know why it is not working with the "MEMORY STICK" option. I think it should. But
| Code: | | cat /proc/bus/usb/devices |
only shows
| Code: | T: Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 13 Spd=12 MxCh= 0
D: Ver= 2.00 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs= 1
P: Vendor=054c ProdID=002e Rev= 6.00
S: Manufacturer=Sony
S: Product=Sony DSC
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=c0 MxPwr= 2mA
I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 3 Cls=08(stor.) Sub=ff Prot=01 Driver=(none) |
Even if you modify /lib/modules/"kernel-version"/modules.usbmap to recognise the device and connect it to the usb-storage module it will not work. There is still the entry Driver=(none) in /proc/bus/usb/devices
