Description Marja Van Waes 2012-04-17 07:19:19 CEST
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #2937 +++

Description of problem:

> (original bug: The Olympus C4040-Zoom Camera is not recognized by F-spot)

Now: 

The reporter of bug 2937 tested with a fresh Mageia 1 install (including all updates) 
the result is that f-spot sees the camera, but isn't able to even retrieve the
thumbnails, all I get is one error per thumbnail (in the log).

gphoto2 works fine, shotwell is slow but functional AFAICT

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
f-spot-0.8.2-1.mga1

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. connect Olympus C4040-Zoom via USB
2. select F-spot import 
3.

@ herbert

Can you paste the error you see?

Do you see anything additional if you start f-spot in a konsole/terminal ?

hmm, actually I tested with the wrong camera, the Canon EOS 10D, I now retested with the right one, the Olympus C4040-Zoom and this one has the same permission issue (Bug 2938) which doesn't allow the user to access the camera, but even when changing the permissions (so that gphoto2 works as user) the camera is not seen by f-spot and shotwell (so no imports are possible :/)

OK, closing this bug as invalid (if there isn't one yet for the Canon EOS 10D, please file a new one, leaving this one open for it is too confusing for me) and reopening bug 2937
