[SOLVED] gthumb, photo import error

[Dale <quail.linux@gmail.com>]

Hi All,

I have fixed the problem accessing my camera with gthumb by adding

ATTRS{idVendor}=="04cb", ATTRS{idProduct}=="01c7", MODE="0664", GROUP="plugdev"

to /etc/udev/rules.d/025_libgphoto2.rules

and then restarting udev and plugging the camera into the laptop

Regards
Dale

Hi All,

I am currently setting up a new laptop for myself. The laptop is a
Acer Aspire Timeline 4810T running Debian Lenny with the
'2.6.30-bpo.1-amd64 #1 SMP Wed Aug 5 11:07:47 UTC 2009 x86_64
GNU/Linux' kernel from backports.org.

My digital camera is a Fuji Film FinePix A900

# tail -f /var/log/messages

Above is the output of my laptop being connected to the laptop.

This is the error that I get when trying to import photos from the
camera with gthumbs

An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB
device'): Could not claim interface 0 (Operation not permitted). Make
sure no other program or kernel module (such as sdc2xx, stv680,
spca50x) is using the device and you have read/write access to the
device.

Does anyone know how I can get my camera to work under Lenny please
