chris:b Posted June 29, 2003 Report Share Posted June 29, 2003 Feeling very stupid to ask this question. Yesterday we bought a digital camera, and now I can't figure out how I can access the files (.jpg) on the CF-card. (I am able using win xp, just connecting via usb cable). I connect the usb cable. What do I have to do next? When I do a tail -f /var/logmessages it says, a new USB device blabla is found, and scsi1: scsi emulation for USB Mass storage Doing lsusb: .... Bus 002 Device 002:ID 0d96:2105 Traveler (thats the correct camera) lsusb -v: a lot of information about the camera: vendor, product ID ,etc I can see the 'camera' in MCC, but as unknown, the same in KDE - information about usb devices. How and where do I mount the camera? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted June 29, 2003 Report Share Posted June 29, 2003 I would check in /dev look for a scd0 or scd1 (scd0 if you have no other scsi devices-including any cd burner, scd1 if you have a cd burner or any other scsi device, etc. if you have more than one). also, since /dec/scdx is probably a symlink, if there is none check in /dev/scsi (i think that's the dir). if it's there somewhere, just create your mount point and try to mount it-although I have no clue what the filesystem maybe :?

kmack Posted June 29, 2003 Report Share Posted June 29, 2003 Not much time to help as I am about to leave, but normally those cards/cameras are identified as /dev/sdax I use an USB card reader which mdk sees as /dev/sda1 and I mount it that way. It worked well when I plugged in the card reader and booted the computer. Mdk identified it and then I just had to mount it. I think it will do the same for your camera. The CF card is a V16 format if I remember correctly and mdk can see it fine. Search the board a bit for "mass storage" devices and "sda" and I think you'll see a couple helpful posts. Sorry I am a bit cryptic due to short time here. HTH though! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowator Posted June 29, 2003 Report Share Posted June 29, 2003 If you don't have a mount point jsut create one. /mnt/camera for example... It may already have made a /mnt/removable. As root mkdir /mnt/removable chmod 777 /mnt/removable (if you want to be able to write to it too) Assuming you have no other scsi disks or emuklated scsi disks mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera -o(rw,user) It should piuck up the filesystem type automatically but you can always put in a (-t vfat) at the end.

chris:b Posted June 29, 2003 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2003 Thanks for the responses. I guess I was not very clear, sorry. I had created a /mnt/camera and tried it with mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera and mount /dev/sda /mnt/camera The problem is that I get the error: sda1 (or sda) no such block device (that's the translation ;-). And indeed in /dev there is no sd* or sda* (whatever) I tried to plug in the camera before booting, and hotplugging. tyme: there is a /dev/scd0, that's my cd burner, no scd1. And a /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/cd, also the cdrom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tons Posted June 29, 2003 Report Share Posted June 29, 2003 Which type of camera do you have? My Fuji Finepix 2400Z is on /dev/sda1 (on Mandrake 9.0 and Mandrake 9.1) Mayby Supermount is causing trouble? Have you tried turning that off?

Have you tried turning that off? It's a Jenoptik JD 2100 z3s (aka 'Traveler', aka 'Skanhex'), a very cheap camera for great pictures :lol: Traveler provides on their website a 'linux step by step' to setup an older model, but only to use gphoto2, I don't know if this is the same for usb mass storage. I'll try the supermount thing the next days. Does supermount + digicam work for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowator Posted June 29, 2003 Report Share Posted June 29, 2003 anna, I forgot that one, i.e. Supermount. It was causing all osrts of problems so I turned it off a long time ago... :-) You should be seeing the device though... From memory the gphoto2 (last time I checked) doesn't do USB mass storage. I spent ages before RTFM I justed plugged in a USB Mass storage, hers the automatic entries in my /dev [root@shuttle dev]# ls -l sda*lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 33 Jun 1 12:47 sda -> scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 34 Jun 1 12:47 sda1 -> scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part1 Try using USBVIEW or Kde Control centre to view your USB tree. Mine picks up the USB Mass storage device. (from KDE control Centre View USB} Archos Multimedia Jukebox Manufacturer: Archos Serial #: 000000000001 etc etc...

Mine picks up the USB Mass storage device. Thanks alot stephen. that's what I was expecting to happen when plugging in the camera. But obv. though the mass storage and the camera gets detected, there it stops and a sda* is not created, i can see this in the output of the log messages. Also, I checked if all the usb and scsi modules are loaded, yes they are. At the moment I have to get new batteries to go on testing. Found usbview on the cd 1 and installed it ...I'ill post here what will happen disabling supermount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowator Posted June 30, 2003 Report Share Posted June 30, 2003 anna, its also possibly worth checking that the hotplug service is actually started and running. I guess if when you installed you didn't have any usbmass storage (or other usb devices) attached it wouldn't start the service by default. I'm on NT now but I guess you should have a /etc/init.d/hotplug ? You can run it with status as an option and check. If it isn't try starting it and then replugging the device??

chris:b Posted July 1, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2003 Good news: I disabled supermount. I should have done that earlier because now I can access faster my hdd- partitions, and the ugly cdrombalalalalala-icons on the desktop are gone :D Bad news: no luck with the digicam. And here are the results. Hot-plugging the camera, I get Jul 1 10:40:56 localhost kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:1f.4-1, assigned address 2 Jul 1 10:40:57 localhost kernel: usb-uhci.c: interrupt, status 2, frame# 1512 Jul 1 10:40:57 localhost kernel: scsi1 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices usbview: Unknown Device Speed: 12Mb/s (full) USB Version: 2.00 Device Class: 00(>ifc ) Device Subclass: 00 Device Protocol: 00 Maximum Default Endpoint Size: 8 Number of Configurations: 1 Vendor Id: 0d96 Product Id: 2105 Revision Number: 0.01 Config Number: 1 Number of Interfaces: 1 Attributes: c0 MaxPower Needed: 10mA Interface Number: 0 Name: (none) .....

General news: After 6 weeks I saw win xp again on my pc, installing Adobe Photoshop which came with the camera :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gowator Posted July 1, 2003 Report Share Posted July 1, 2003 Hi anna depmod is the program which makes the makefile used by modprobe to load the modular kernel drivers at runtime.... Yours should be created when you installed. I can see you have usb-storage but its unused. Actually you have it twice (both unused) You could try a modprobe usb-storage it should then be picked up (in theory) and hopefully clean the redundant copy. then you ca redo the lsmod. It should be picked up by hotplug ahhhh ... disgregard.... You don't have the fat or vfat modules loaded. Your Camera will probably act like a FAT/12 filesystem so you need these to access it. Check you have it: /lib/modules/2.4.21-0.13mdk/kernel/fs/vfat/vfat.o.gz If you do try an insmod vfat :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris:b Posted July 2, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2003 I can see you have usb-storage but its unused. Actually you have it twice (both unused) Hi Stephen, I made a stupid mistake copy&paste, so the output of lsmod has actually only one usb-storage.
