Hi,
Does anyone here know how to use DigiKam to download images from a
Samsung tablet? After
plugging the tablet in via USB cable, the removable media tool pops
up with two options:
Open in New Window, and Open DigiKam. Selecting Open in New Window
does nothing;
I do "Open in New Window". It opens in konqueror.
Make sure in the tablet that it connects as "Mass Storage".
I navigate to the device's image folder (or wherever I intend; such
as to a text file.) Then I copy (`cp`) (usually move (`mv`) is not
permitted) to wherever I want on my workstation.
DigiKam is selected, I get its main window, but no
files are displayed
I don't use digikam, but isn't its intended use for _camera_ input?
and there seems
to be no way to navigate the tablets file system.
Suggestions are welcome.
I seem to be able to navigate whilst in konqueror.
What does .../syslog , or .../messages, or `dmesg` show you?
Disclosure: My tablet is a Samsung - albeit several years old.
And my Ubuntu is very old, but Trinity is very current.
Not much help, sorry.
