I have the above camera and it was not allowing me to
use it in digikam. I found that I could use it as root,
but wanted to use it as a standard user. I tried adding
the user to the camera group, but to no avail. Finally
I found that the device was not described in the
libgphoto2.rules file. I have added it and the camera
works correctly in digikam now. I got the device
information from:
http://www.teaser.fr/~hfiguiere/linux/digicam.html
I added the following to my libgphoto2.rules
# Canon PowerShot A410 (PTP mode)
SYSFS{idVendor}=="04a9", SYSFS{idProduct}=="30f9",
MODE="0660", GROUP="camera"
If this is not the correct place for me to submit this,
then my apologies, but please could you pass it on to
the right place.
I am using Debian with a kernel I rolled from the
2.6.16 Debian kernel source. The camera worked fine
with Mepis, so maybe they are using different files.
Apart from that, many thanks for an excellent system.
When it works it works mighty fine!
