You know, I'm rather glad that my camera has a lovely USB cable and Mass Storage setting that lets me mount it like any ol'hard disk and operate on files at will :-)<br><br>TerryP.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Mar 21, 2008 at 8:54 AM, Kris Moore <<a href="mailto:kris@pcbsd.com">kris@pcbsd.com</a>> wrote:<br>

I've not personally played with Kamera yet, so I can't vouch for its<br>
effectiveness. That being said, if you built the port, it should work<br>
just as well on PC-BSD as it would building the system from scratch out<br>
of ports also, we're not doing anything crazy to the base system, its<br>
just vanilla FreeBSD under there. ;)<br>

Have you tried grabbing the digiKam PBI?<br>

I've played with that one a bit, and it was able to import photos from<br>
my wife's digital camera just fine. It apparently uses libgphoto also,<br>
so hopefully it would work "out of box" with your camera as well.<br>
<br>
I will take a look at the Kamera port though, and see if we can fix /<br>
include it in a future release or update down the road.<br>
<br>
Glad to have you running the OS! We need more FreeBSD devs to start<br>
using BSD on the desktop, so we can bug you guys about fixing system<br>
things :)<br>
