Hu, was your cardreaser in the menu and what did it do?

This should not open a new instance, but connect to the running one. Achim?

if unmounted clicked on the media thing in digiKam it will umount when you 
leave the download dialog. If you choose mount & start digikam digikam will 
see it was mounted before digikam started and will not umount it (of course).

No, the menu is dynamic, when you plugin the camera after digikam is started 
it will become visible in the menu. there is nothing to do in the camera 
config...

> menu and an alternative to static mounting

It will show all media devices, it can not decide if /boot will contain images 
or not ;-)

> - the main media browse menu has here no working function

That should not be true.
