Hi all,

I'm trying to download a video from a JVC Everio GZ-MG155U camcorder with a 
hard disk via USB to Mandriva 2008. GTKam couldn't detect the camcorder.

It would seem to me that the contained hard disk should show up as a USB hard 
disk, but lsusb didn't show it:
[slitt at mydesk ~]$ /usr/sbin/lsusb
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 008 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 006 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 007 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 0a81:0205 Chesen Electronics Corp. PS/2 Keyboard+Mouse 
Adapter
Bus 005 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 04b8:0110 Seiko Epson Corp. Perfection 1650
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 0000:0000  
[slitt at mydesk ~]$

It showed only a keyboard/mouse and my Epson scanner.

Any ideas how to download from my camcorder to Linux, or procedures by which I 
can learn how to do it?

Thanks
