I have been trying to get my camera to work in squeeze for a while. When I plug in the camera the "Import from Removable Device" window appears but has no camera to choose as device.

I've tried the suggestions to add udev rules, but none of them have worked for me, and I am part of the plugdev group.

I have libgphoto2-2 and gphoto2 installed.

Here is the output from dmesg when I connect the camera:

[282632.902459] usb 5-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 12
[282633.099588] usb 5-1: New USB device found, idVendor=040a, idProduct=0581
[282633.099592] usb 5-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
[282633.099595] usb 5-1: Product: KODAK EasyShare Z760 Zoom Digital Camera
[282633.099598] usb 5-1: Manufacturer: Eastman Kodak Company
[282633.099600] usb 5-1: SerialNumber: KCKER52107612
[282633.099688] usb 5-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice


Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

ok, nevermind, I figured out how to actually use gphoto and got it to give me information about the camera, then i found gtkam.

all seems to be working fine :)
