#
# Sets up newly plugged in USB camera so that just one certain user
USER=root
# can access it from user space. (Replace root by the user you want
# to have access to the cameras.)
# It then runs the X11 application (gtkam is used as an example)
X11_APP=/usr/bin/gtkam
# on the X11 display (:0 should work on most single user workstations)
DISPLAY=:0
# in the directory (~$USER is just the user's home directory)
DIRECTORY=~$USER
#
# Note that for this script to work, you'll need all of the following:
# a) a line in the file /etc/hotplug/usermap that corresponds to the
# camera you are using. You can get the correct lines for all cameras
# supported by libgphoto2 by running "print-usb-usermap".
# b) run your camera software as the user given above
# c) a Linux kernel supporting hotplug and usbdevfs
# d) the hotplug package (http://linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net/)
# e) su
# f) env
# g) X11
#
# In the usermap file, the first field "usb module" should be named
# "usbcam" like this script.
#
# Script written by Trevor Woerner but slightly adapted for inclusion
# into libgphoto2.
