After seeing Tim's message, I realized what you wrote. How do you
have /var/log/messages? Run "sudo journalctl -fa" in a terminal
before plugging in the cable and see if anything shows up.
Interesting - at first I got no response for a couple of the permuations
I had tried before - so I tried a new permutation of USB port and two
cables - an extension cable connected to a std USB cable with a micro
plug - which worked! Now I am confused about why ALL the other
permutations worked for ALL the other devices - besides the camera . .
weird - maybe it is an intermittent cable or camera problem? - hmm . .
more testing required . . at least I know now that the connection is not
100% failed . .
Thanks for responding - I appreciate it!
Regards,
Phil.
