 Posted: Sun Jul 20, 2003 4:10 pm Post subject: Aiptek Pocket DV II 1.3 Megapixel troubles |
 |
|
My ISP gave me a present: Aiptek Pocket DV II digital camera.
I Builded a kernel with all the options I thought it would be useful and pluged the camera in the USB port. Directly some messages appeared in my log:
| Code: |
hub 1-0:0: debounce: port 1: delay 100ms stable 4 status 0x101
hub 1-0:0: new USB device on port 1, assigned address 2
|
Hmm, not bad. Let's go on!
| Code: | | # modprobe usb_storage |
(this automagicaly loads also the sd_mod ans scsi_mod)
And again the log starts growing:
| Code: |
SCSI subsystem initialized
Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...
usb-storage: USB Mass Storage device detected
<here I snip some not-so-useful-log-shit>
WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured
USB Mass Storage device found at 2
drivers/usb/core/usb.c: registered new driver usb-storage
USB Mass Storage support registered.
|
The warning doesn't make me happy, but let's try to find something useable:
Except my normal stuff, there is now an extra (SCSI) disk with one partition:
| Code: |
Disk /dev/sda: 6 MB, 6291456 bytes
2 heads, 32 sectors/track, 192 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 64 * 512 = 32768 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 192 6137+ 1 FAT12
Partition 1 has different physical/logical beginnings (non-Linux?)
phys=(0, 1, 1) logical=(0, 0, 14)
|
Even I'm able to mount the device:
| Code: | | # mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/floppy -t usbfs |
/mnt/floppy because that mountpoint is never used and I'm too lazy to make another 
In /mnt/floppy are now 1 file (devices) and two directories (001 and 002). The 001 dir contains 2 files (001 and 002) and the 002 dir contains 1 file (001). But none of the file are the photo's I expected.
What's going wrong? |

| I might have some bad news - I was researching getting a cheap digital camera and came across reviews for that one (it's about $80 commercially, so you got a good deal).. apparently the onboard memory is very cheap. Some cameras don't show any, and most show less then they are supposed to have. That isn't really a problem, except the review mentioned it occasionally wiping the memory clean when the card was hooked up. They did say though that if you used an inserted memory card, it would work perfectly fine. I don't know if it deleted your files, perhaps you have a different problem, but in any case be careful about storing files on there. |
