Hi i just got Canon Powershot sx10 IS. but i can not find my canon in a list but what i know it is a supported model…
any idea how i can download my pictures from the camera?:sarcastic:
I have a Canon SX110 IS, and it works fine with OpenSuse 11.1 x64 & KDE 4.2.
All I did was plug in the USB cable and the system found it. Started digikam and selected an option for the Canon (though I can’t remember which one it was! :)) It was down toward the lower end of the Canon area of the menu, something like “other Canon” or something similar.
Can’t be more specific at the moment as I’m using my sister’s XP box, home being rather far away at the moment . . .
Hope this helps. 
If your camera is not on the list, generic PTP camera has a good chance of working with recent cameras.
Ah, thank you. 
That’s what I couldn’t remember earlier. The Canon PTP option will work just fine. My Poweshot SX110 isn’t on the list either, but the PTP mode works okay.
it doesn’t work for me,
it returns error: Failed to list in /Store_00010001/DCIM/101CANON
any idea?
no idea? >:(
I don’t know this model. Do you need to do anything on the camera side to enable PTP mode? What do you get in /var/log/messages when you plug in the camera? It should show the USB device being detected.
okey so i looked to messages and there is

This exchange in the digikam devel forum was after 11.1 was released so it is possible you need a bleeding edge version of libgphoto or digikam or something. You’ll have to judge for yourself.
[Digikam-devel] [Bug 184954] New: unable to delete items from camera - canon sx10is](http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/digikam-devel/2009-February/026699.html)
If there is a bug on this, then my post may not help. …
… but I’m curious, with your camera not plugged in, type in konsole or terminal:
su -c ‘fdisk -l’
df -Th
and enter root password when prompted for a password (note the “-l” in fdisk is a lower case “L” (for list)), then plug in your camera, and repeat that.
su -c ‘fdisk -l’
df -Th
Are there any differences?
there is nothing different, everything looks same… should be ?

They should be different.
It shows that while your powershot is detected via the /var/log printouts, it is not seen by “fdisk”.
I don’t have the expertise to debug this.
IMHO its still possible digikam could recognize your camera and download the images, even if it does not show up in the commands I provided. But as noted, I don’t know enough to help on this. Sorry.
so i found that it does recognize my camera:
Title: &USB Imaging Interface

and more…
but it still returns that error failed to list files in…
