OMG, I have a flashback! If you search the TDE

earlier post from me with a simillar problem. TDE did nothing, when I
plugged in my Casio camera (usb mass storage device). It turned out that a
genius from freedesktop.org changed an entry in the hardware database so
that my caera was not recognized as "disk" any more. I still have the
udev-rule on my computer, 'cause freedesktop.org don't fix this feature:
#/etc/udev/rules.d/99-casio.rules
# UDEV erkennt CASIO Kamera als "generic", nicht als "disk" :-(
ENV{ID_SERIAL}=="CASIO_COMPUTER_CASIO_QV_DIGITAL",
ENV{ID_TYPE}="disk",
ENV{UDISKS_AUTO}="1", ENV{UDISKS_SYSTEM}="0",
ENV{UDISKS_SYSTEM_INTERNAL}="0"
ENV{ID_SERIAL}=="TANDBERG_RDX_TANDBERGRD6520236564-0:0",
ENV{ID_TYPE}="disk", ENV{UDISKS_AUTO}="1",

ENV{UDISKS_SYSTEM_INTERNAL}="0"
... looks I had the same problem on my Tandberg, as well ...

The world is getting crazy. Last time I checked something related I found
out, there is now MTP and PTP - media and picture transfer protocols. Some
newer cameras (see post from 2006 [1] do this as well and you have to tell
it in which mode it should present itself when attached via usb.
On our new camera I configured few years ago mass storage and never
bothered, but recently I had to learn that there is something I was not
aware of for many years :)
Modern mobile phones are even worse as they incorporate many devices and you
have only 1 usb plug on it :)
