I have found that it can't be mounted like a disk drive, even though you would think it should work that way. Instead, I have to use gtkam to get the pictures off of it - /usr/ports/graphics/gtkam Also had to change some system stuff in order to be able to do this as an ordinary user: Added to /etc/devfs.conf # Allow members of group operator to use USB own usb* root:operator perm usb* 0660 ...and here is my /etc/devfs.rules in its entirety: # Added so ordinary users can use the USB camera if they are # members of group 'usb' # [usb_devices=10] add path 'ugen*' mode 0660 group usb add path 'da*s*' mode 0660 group usb # # 20091231: added the following for 8.0, since usb is handled # differently now. Hoping this will make gtkam work. add path 'usb/*' mode 0660 group usb HTH... -- Chris Hill chris@monochrome.org ** [ Busy Expunging <|> ]
