[digiKam-users] Failed to connect to the camera

[Maik Qualmann]

The problem is known, a system applet is running under Ubuntu/Gnome that 
occupies the USB port, so that another GPhoto2 can no longer access it. 
digiKam requires direct access and does not use the Gnome applet or under 
Plasma KIO.
