Does it? Many/most of us get the -60 error, some of us get the -1 error as well, and many/most of us can do nothing with the camera without taking drastic steps (e.g., killall gvfs-gphoto2, chmod -x gvfs-gphoto2) > - software wanting to use the camera should know about that and > gvfs-mount -u if required, f-spot and gthumb at least does it Really?

"If somebody has an issue with a software".... With all due respect, Sebastien, these are the words of a cubicle-bound coder and not the words of someone interested in assisting anyone other than another developer. Most users - the vast majority who just want their computers to work reliably and as expected - do not have the technical knowledge to make the distinction you describe. They used to plug in their camera, it worked. Now it doesn't. For most users - the vast majority who just want their computers to work reliably and as expected - the "software" in question is Ubuntu. That's what they see. Sure, for debugging purposes this can be refined by triagers or developers who know better, but that requires insight and inside knowledge. This is a valid report. If it is not a GVFS bug, then please, since you know more about the inner goings on of the software involved, please direct it elsewhere. If you need to know something specific to assist you with that, then please ask for it. If the bug as originally reported no longer exists, then please mark this fix released, clarify why this report does not apply, and respectfully request that a new report be opened. Continuing to shut this down as "invalid" is simply a slap in the face to the many people who have tried to contribute to this report. -- Ubuntu 8.10 can't mount digital camera showing a window popup message: -60 could not lock the device message https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
