MTP Device v0.16 loads when phone camera plugged in.

[April]

When a phone camera is plugged in what script starts it and where is that situated .
The go-mtpfs process is running .

I want to run gmtp 1.3.9 when a camera goes in but I need to find the script that's loading the other version and alter it.
Thanks

Mm do you know?
pupautodetect and pupcamera both do not seem to fit the bill
Not in xenialpup64-7.5 anyhow

hi @April

you're possibly after /etc/udev/rules.d/88-puppy-autodetect.rules

Hello Phil .Thanks . I hashed out the operating line but it did not change the auto loading of that .
Barry sure got his cameras in a knot when he was doing that one . He says its part of "woof" and in all puppies?

@April a simpler solution might be to rename the current version's binary then use it's original name to make a symlink to the new version. ('swhutialysdo)

If you have gmtp installed and working.

I think you need to change this part of /usr/sbin/pupautodetect
.

Code: Select all

case $1 in
 camera)
  pupcamera &
 ;;
 android-device)
  if [ "$(which pupmtp)" != "" ]; then
   pupmtp &
  elif [ "$(which mtpdevice)" != "" ]; then
   mtpdevice mount &
  else
   please_install "mtpdevice or pupmtp"
  fi

.
This part I think is saying to start pupmtp.
.

Code: Select all

android-device)
  if [ "$(which pupmtp)" != "" ]; then
   pupmtp &

So, change it to gmtp

Code: Select all

android-device)
  if [ "$(which gmtp)" != "" ]; then
   gmtp &

.
This part is starting pupcamera

Code: Select all

case $1 in
 camera)
  pupcamera &

Note:
I assume your install of gmtp has put it's files in the normal Puppy path directories.
Just gmpt should run the program.

Thanks bigpup. That worked a treat. Been annoying me for ages.

case $1 in
camera)
which gmtp 2>&1 >/dev/null || please_install "gmtp"
gmtp &
;;
android-device)
which gmtp 2>&1 >/dev/null || please_install "mtpdevice"
gmtp mount &
;;

esac

Jafadmin Didn't try that but thanks also.
