2002-06-05 03:32:57 Yes! Thanks to the author! We didn't have the software CD available for our 318, went to the HP web site under windoze and found we couldn't even download the software from their driver support page! You needed to ORDER a CD - 5 to 7 days shipping time... wonderful, typical HP customer "care". With this driver, I simply put the camera in "Disk Drive" mode under "Setup"->"PC Connect Mode", after plugging it into the computer and turning it on. I used the usbview utility to make sure it was awake. (A cool utility, if you haven't tried it...) Once I saw the camera was registered in usbview, I created a mount point at "/mnt/hp318", then mounted the camera using "mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/hp318". After a successful mount, I simply cd'd to the mount point, then cruised through the directory structure and grabbed the images to my hard drive. Cool! This saved the day! We needed these pictures for a school project...

2002-03-11 12:33:37 Yes, works for me, too ! The USB Mass Storage Driver autodetects the camera (see /var/log/messages) and makes it available as sdaX <--- depends on the number of other scsi disks in your System. Then mount it using -t vfat. Now you can access the dir. structure on the camera However, linux behaves strangely when the camera is switched off while it's connected to the pc without being unmounted. Somehow, the directorys are cached but when you try to retrieve an image, it doesn't work, and when the camera is switched on again, they do not become available again, so you have to unmount and remount it. But overall great work by the kernel developers, so the x can easyly be turned green for the Photosmart 318 !

2001-11-23 01:17:30 This camera works, if it is configured to emulate a disk-drive (see manual of the camera). In that case, the product-id changes to 0x4002. Then the camera will be detected by usb-storage (Linux 2.4.14). Finally you can mount the CF-card via /dev/sda1.
