Gphoto - not reviewed

I recently came across some cool software called Gphoto. It’s a manager for transferring and handling pictures from digital cameras on Linux. As far as I can tell it’s the primary Linux solution for this task. I was waiting for some free time to install it and write about my experience (while transferring my latest stock of pictures from my camera) but that didn’t work out so well.

I installed it painlessly but it froze my system when I ran it. I hadn’t experienced that even once with my new Gentoo installation so I didn’t believe at first that it had really halted my entire computer. I’m officially recommending that you do not install the latest version of Gphoto. Maybe wait a month and see what they’ve got.
