[Shotwell] camera or memory card not detected by Shotwell

[Adam Dingle]

Lucas,

what version of Shotwell are you running?  What operating system version are you running on each of these machines?  Has this ever worked in the past with your KDE machines (e.g. running a previous version of Shotwell or your operating system)?

Dear list, 

On 2 of the 3 machines where I run Shotwell, the Camera > Mass Storage 
Camera node in the sidebar does not appear when an SDcard is 
automatically mounted by my operating system. In order for that node to 
appear, I systematically need to first go to 'File > Import from 
folder', and select the memory card device. 

I've found a 2010 thread regarding a similar issue [1], but my 
libgphoto2 is much more recent than the one that seemed to cause that 
user trouble. 

What might be a significant difference is that the first computer runs 
the GNOME desktop environment, whereas the two problematic machines run KDE. 

What could be causing this minor inconvenience ?
