Hoping that someone can see what I may be overlooking. I've got a Nikon
CoolPix 885 that I'm attempting to connect to my FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE
machine via it's USB connector to a D-Link 7-port USB hub. The hub
itself is connected via one of two USB ports on the tower. I have the
following in /boot/loader.conf:
________________________________________________________________
salamander# cat /boot/loader.conf
snd_emu10k1_load="YES"
usb_load="YES" # USB support
ums_load="YES" # USB mouse
umass_load="YES" # USB Zip 100 drive Or Camera
________________________________________________________________
and the following in my /etc/rc.conf:
________________________________________________________________
salamander# cat /etc/rc.conf
# -- sysinstall generated deltas -- # Mon Dec 6 13:36:23 2004
# Created: Mon Dec 6 13:36:23 2004
# Enable network daemons for user convenience.
# Please make all changes to this file, not to /etc/defaults/rc.conf.
# This file now contains just the overrides from /etc/defaults/rc.conf.
hostname="salamander.thesizemores.net"
ifconfig_vr0="DHCP"
linux_enable="YES"
moused_enable="YES"
usbd_enable="YES"
sendmail_enable="YES"
sendmail_flags="-bd"
sendmail_pidfile="/var/spool/postfix/pid/master.pid"
sendmail_outbound_enable="NO"
sendmail_submit_enable="NO"
sendmail_msp_queue_enable="NO"
devfs_system_ruleset="local_ruleset"
________________________________________________________________
and this in a /etc/devfs.rules file that I created per another post I
saw on the forum:
________________________________________________________________
[local_ruleset=10]
add path 'ugen*' mode 664
________________________________________________________________
The following lines appear in my /sys/i386/conf/GENERIC file (this is
out-of-the-box, I have not recompiled the kernel since initial install):
________________________________________________________________
# USB support
device uhci # UHCI PCI->USB interface
device ohci # OHCI PCI->USB interface
device usb # USB Bus (required)
#device udbp # USB Double Bulk Pipe devices
device ugen # Generic
device uhid # "Human Interface Devices"
device ukbd # Keyboard
device ulpt # Printer
device umass # Disks/Mass storage - Requires scbus and da
device ums # Mouse
device urio # Diamond Rio 500 MP3 player
device uscanner # Scanners
# SCSI peripherals
device scbus # SCSI bus (required for SCSI)
device ch # SCSI media changers
device da # Direct Access (disks)
device sa # Sequential Access (tape etc)
device cd # CD
device pass # Passthrough device (direct SCSI access)
device ses # SCSI Environmental Services (and SAF-TE)
________________________________________________________________
However, when I connect my camera via the USB connector and turn it on,
I get no messages in dmesg and usbdevs shows
________________________________________________________________
salamander# usbdevs
addr 1: UHCI root hub, VIA
addr 1: UHCI root hub, VIA
addr 1: UHCI root hub, VIA
________________________________________________________________
What have I missed? I assumed with the latter configured as I've
outlined, I should be able to have the camera plugged in on a running
system, see it detected, and then mount. Later I could add an entry to
fstab for the device to make this a little easier.
