           Summary: "camera:/" protocol only as root
           Product: kde
           Version: 4.5
          Platform: openSUSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: zaloha at volny.cz


Version:           4.5 (using KDE 4.5.5) 
OS:                Linux

I can connect to my PTP camera (Canon PowerShot A720 IS) via camera:/ protocol
in Dolphin or Krusader only as root. The problem seems to be as some
privileges, but: as common user I see the camera (via lsussb), Digikam operates
OK, gphoto2 too...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Login to KDE as common user, connect camera to PC, start Dolphin or Krusader,
type camera:/ into address line, press enter (or any similar process, eg. via
bookmarks)

Actual Results:  
Blank (empty) window in Dolphin or Krusader.

Expected Results:  
Window with proper file and folder structure from camera.

The process described above works correctly in root mode of Dolphin or
Krusader, or in root system session (login to KDE as root). I observe continuos
problem with camera:/ protocol in KDE 4.x.y - this protocol worked without
problem in KDE 3.5.x. There was no function in KDE 4.5.4 and earlier (either as
common user, or as root)....
