Hi all, I am using a Nikon CoolPix 3100 digital camera. It is pretty easy to set up in Debian unstable. It doesn't seem to be supported by gphoto2 or gtkam, but one can mount it as a USB mass storage device after installing hotplug, following the directions at this page:
http://home.gagme.com/greg/linux/usbcamera.php Here is my question. Once the camera is mounted (in my case, I put it at /mnt/camera), I can see the pictures here: /mnt/camera/dcim/100nikon/*.jpg If I want to delete them, can I just do "rm -f /mnt/camera/dcim/100nikon/*.jpg" or would this cause an internal database of the camera to get out of sync with the pictures actually present? For obvious reasons I don't want to try this experiment myself so I'm hoping someone knows the answer. If it's safe to do this, it would be more convenient than going through the camera's menu screens to delete the pictures after they're safely on my hard disk.
