Hi
When I plug my digital camera into my computer, KDE opens its new
medium
window, saying that a new 'Unmounted Removable Medium' has been
detected,
and giving an option to open it in a new window. However, the
configuration dialogue has a specific 'Camera' option. How does KDE
decide whether the new medium is a camera, and how can I make it
recognise my camera as such?
Did you turn your camera on ?
Yes. The problem is not that it is not detected, but that it shows up as
generic removable media rather than as a camera.

I suspect that I will have to add some sort of identification code to some
file, but I don't know where.


If nothing works out, you need to play with udev rules and hal to instruct
them to mount your camera device when it is detected. As what device is it
getting identified? (/dev/sda or /dev/sdb). I dont think this is a KDE
problem.It would be good if you could go thru writing udev rules.
