P4 2.4ghz 2.0 ram openSUSE 11.2 KDE 4.3.5
CAMERA = olympus D575Zoom
I am not sure that this post shouldn’t be under the hardware section or if this only relates to digikam software.
Have been using opensuse 11.2/kde4.3.5 for a few months now and for the most part its been good.
It [machine and digikam] recognized my Canon xTi and I was able to download pics, no problem.
However, When I plug the usb connection into my Olympus nothing much happens.
I had no problems whatsoever in opensuse 11.0 with this camera, it worked with out fail.
So now when I plug the usb cable in and then plug in to the camera, this is what happens:
The device notifier pops up but the device is not listed.
If I open a terminal and do [mount -ls] or [lsusb] or [fdisk -l] these are my results:

I did a bit of googling and searched the forum here, but have found no solution yet. When I autodetect my camera in digikam it says it is a C2040Z [which just could mean it uses same driver, I think]. I tried PTP and Mounted camera types but, neither of them works. One solution I read was to buy a card reader because apparently that works. I have tried hooking the camera up to my acer Aspire D150 [running Moblin 2.1] and I can view the pictures on that machine so I know the camera is OK.
I am at a loss as to where to go from here to get this working. Would anyone have any help for me please?
Thank You
