Firstly, I don't use Gnome and our cameras are different. This may not |
| 28 |
matter for your setup but thought it worth checking into. I have this |
| 29 |
for my Canon in make.conf: |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
CAMERAS="canon ptp2" |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
I use the ptp2 and most likely need to remove the other but you may need |
| 34 |
to set yours to something that your camera uses. CAMERAS="ptp2" just |
| 35 |
may work. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Usually a emerge -pv <package> will show the options available. It does |
| 38 |
here anyway. |

Hope that helps. |
