R-PI and Canon DSLR - cannot open camera? - by: mlarsson

Hi!

I've just installed and prepared a Raspberry Pi for remote operation, and it's seems to work very nicely - except for my Canon DSLR. It's connected and found by R-Pi, according to dmesg:

[ 560.533024] usb 1-1.4.4: new high-speed USB device number 10 using dwc_otg
[ 560.635465] usb 1-1.4.4: New USB device found, idVendor=04a9, idProduct=3253

However, Indi cannot open camera. I've had the same problem using an Ubuntu laptop, but then all I had to do was to "unmount" the camera in the file manager. How do I do this in R-Pi? Or what can I do? Grateful for any advice...
