 Posted: Mon Jul 15, 2002 12:23 am Post subject: Getting gtkam to work |
 |
|
I have a usb canon s100 camera, and have gotten gtkam to work easily using other distros.
I have gtkam and gphoto2 installed, but gtkam can not detect my camera this time. When I enable debug from the help menu, here is the line that I think is the problem:
| Code: | Trying to load '/usr/lib/gphoto2/2.0/libgphoto2_canon.la'...
Failed to load '/usr/lib/gphoto2/2.0/libgphoto2_canon.la': /usr/lib/gphoto2/2.0/libgphoto2_canon.la: invalid ELF header.
Trying to load '/usr/lib/gphoto2/2.0/libgphoto2_canon.a'...
Failed to load '/usr/lib/gphoto2/2.0/libgphoto2_canon.a': /usr/lib/gphoto2/2.0/libgphoto2_canon.a: invalid ELF header. |
There is also a similar line in the debug output for all of the other camera drivers. What can I do to fix this? Like I said, I have gotten it to work on other distros, so it should just be a matter of getting gtkam to work properly with gphoto2. |

| I have never tried that... what command would I use to try and see it from the command line? |

OK, I am the original poster.
I was unable to access the device using the command line either.
I am wondering if I need to have something in the kernel that I do not have at the current time. The things I have right now are:
<*> Support for USB
<*> UHCI Alternate Driver (JE) support
<*> USB Audio support
<*> USB Mass Storage support
I think this should be sufficient, but could somebody let me know if there's anything else that needs to be in the kernel? |

Ok, my question seems to have lost the interest of other people on this board, but I'll answer my own question since I've figured it out.
There is an option when you're configuring the kernel that's under the USB options. It is the option that creates the devices in /proc/bus/usb (edit: It's the preliminary USB filesystem option), and this needs to be enabled, othewise gphoto2 and thus gtkam does not work. |
