Repeating a whole, long email just just for a 4 word reply is why top-posters don't see the value of in-line posting.

You're probably frustrated and aggrivated. I would be too.

But we can't assist you without more details.

Sorry for the OT post but I know a few round here are well informed on the storage industry.

I'm just about to migrate a bunch of PCs to SATA from IDE as the IDE drive caddies are failing [0] and I already have my server and a few PCs using SATA, what I'm looking for is a drivebay / backplane manufacturer that has 5, 4, 3 and 1 slot internal bays available that use the *same* tray / housing / caddie.

The tray / housing / caddie doesn't have to be rugged [1] or cover the whole drive, it would just be *really* convenient to be able to move drives around at will.

My search (below) hasn't helped much, has anyone round here got and suggestions?
sata "removable (disk | drive | harddrive) (caddy | bay | drawer | tray)" single multi

Thanks

[0] I think all ATA removable bays take a bunch of liberties with the standard anyway and these were cheap and are old [1] which I suppose by definition means it's not a caddie

Don't know where to look next?X

Confused? Frustrated?X

dbus-launch is used to launch a program within a session bus instance. Try checking the init scripts to see what program is being run, that program may be the cause of the problem and not dbus itself.

Subject: Gnome desktop and digital camera: How?

Message-ID: <20071201104040.7e97e0df@localhost.localdomain>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hello,

whenever I plug in my digital camera (Canon S50), a window pops up on the Gnome desktop asking me if I wanted to download the photos to my personal album. Once I clicked "yes", something seemed to happen, but I've got no idea what or where my "personal album" might be (a "find" on JPG images in my $HOME dir didn't turn up anything).

I also couldn't access the camera via gtkam; I got the message that the device was "in use", presumably by the saving-into-nirvana feature of the "personal album" thingy.

So the next time (after rebooting, even) I clicked "Ignore" on the album-saving window, but gtkam still claims that it can't get hold of the camera (although the camera is correctly identified).

I can't get my head around all this graphical desktop stuff. I'm actually trying to fix this for my wife. Myself I just yank the photos off the camera with a command-line utility as root.

Hints, anyone?

--D.

Do you need help?X
