Thanks for your report, is this reproducible everytime you try to see your device?

[Pedro Villavicencio (pedro)]

I've sent this upstream at: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=519040

[will_in_wi (will-in-wi)]

It used to. Now it just fails with this error:

Unable to mount SanDisk Corp. Sansa E200 series
Error initializing camera: -1: Unspecified error

The interesting thing is that this is just is a media player set up as a mass storage device. No camera stuff should be loading.

[Pedro Villavicencio (pedro)]

Ok, thanks for the feedback.

[Fabien Tassin (fta)]

I'm having the same issue as in comment #6 with my camera, that used to work up to a few days ago.

Unable to mount Panasonic (Matsushita) Lumix DMC-FZ10 Camera
Error initializing camera: -1: Unspecified error

No crash at this point.

I can get a crash that way:
1/ open computer:/// in Nautilus
2/ double click on the camera
3/ click Cancel in the error dialog saying 'Opening "Panasonic (Matsushita) Lumix DMC-FZ10 Camera". You can stop this operation by clicking cancel'

This is 100% reproducible.

[Fabien Tassin (fta)]

The crash is fixed but the feature is still broken. i.e. my description in #8 is still valid except it no longer crashes.
Do we need another bug ?

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

Could you run "gvfs-mount -li" before plugging the camera and after getting the opening dialog?

[will_in_wi (will-in-wi)]

I got the crash again when I did this. I think the crash happens once a reboot. Iran the command before and after inserting my media player (note the problem is that it is not a camera) and here is the diff:

(btw, my camera is a DMC-FX9)

I've removed from /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/10osvendor/20-libgphoto2.fdi all the entries matching usb.vendor_id = 1242 (0x4da), restarted hal and now, I can see my camera in nautilus and extract my pictures, yet, gphoto is no longer proposed during the automount.

This bug also presents in Ubuntu 8.10.

It also helps to mount camera in Ubuntu 8.10.

[Bernhard Reiter (ockham-razor)]

Same problem as of #6 here with an
HP PhotoSmart R507
using Ubuntu 8.10:

> Unable to mount Hewlett-Packard PhotoSmart 720 / PhotoSmart 935 (storage)
> Error initializing camera: -1: Unspecified error

According to some other related bugs, it might have to do with the camera's mass storage mode (being switched on here).
Note that the camera icon and name are displayed in computer:///
Double clicking on it there gives an error message à la "Unable to mount location. Error initializing camera: -1: Unspecified error" (German: Einhängen des Ortes nicht möglich. Error initializing camera: -1: Unspecified error). No crash, though.
Stuff used to work some time before 8.10.

Haven't tried workaround from #12 yet, but could it be that this suggests that gphoto (something related to mass storage vs PTP mode handling) is to blame?

could you try if that's still an issue in intrepid or jaunty?

[Chris Franklin (jcfranklin)]

I am having this issue. Intrepid 2.6.27-11-generic

could you get a gdb stacktrace on intrepid or jaunty?

I had replied with a request - "how do I provide that information?" and
never received a response. I would love to help any way I can to get
this resolved.

there has been no respond after the request to get a stacktrace on intrepid or jaunty, on what version did you try, could you describe what you do exactly and what error you get?

[Chris Franklin (jcfranklin)]

I am using 8.10 Intrepid.
When I connect my HP Photosmart 733 I get "Unable to mount
Hewlett-Packard Photosmart 720/ Photosmart 935 (storage) Error
initializing camera: -1: Unspecified error" when I click on
Hewlett-Packard Photosmart 720/ Photosmart 935 (storage) under "Places".
The camera itself shows "Connected to computer" and the read/write LED
illuminates as if it was reading the SD card. When I click on OK the LED
on the camera shuts off.

Attached is a screen grab of the error.

The LED flashes a couple of times when I connect the camera in Windows
and then I can open the SD card like a Mass Storage Device.

What do I need to do to provide a stacktrace?

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the current comment seems to be a different issue than the one described there which is a computer: location crasher
