<span class="application">digiKam</span> uses a fast and robust database to store
meta-information, so commenting and tagging are quick and reliable.
</p><p>Here's how to get started with <span class="application">digiKam</span>:</p><div class="procedure"><ol class="procedure" type="1"><li class="step"><p>
Install the <span class="application">digiKam</span> package. Please refer to the
<a class="ulink" href="help:/kubuntu/manage-software/" target="_top">Adding
Applications</a> document for help on installing applications.
</p></li><li class="step"><p>
Once installed, start <span class="application">digiKam</span> by going to
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenu">Kickoff Application Launcher</span></span> → <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guisubmenu">Applications</span></span> → <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guisubmenu">Graphics</span></span> → <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenuitem">Photo Management</span></span>.
</p></li><li class="step"><p>
When a camera is connected to the computer, <span>Kubuntu</span> should pop open a
dialog box with choices for further action. Selecting "digiKam Detect and
Download" causes <span class="application">digiKam</span> to open and begin importing
pictures.
</p></li><li class="step"><p>
If auto-detection does not work because the camera is not on the currently
supported list, launch <span class="application">digiKam</span> by going to
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenu">Kickoff Application Launcher</span></span> → <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guisubmenu">Applications</span></span> → <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guisubmenu">Graphics</span></span> → <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenuitem">Photo Management</span></span>.
Select
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenu">Camera</span></span> → <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenuitem">Add Camera...</span></span> and follow the instructions to add the camera. Once a camera
has been set up, pictures can be downloaded from that camera by going to
<span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenu">Camera</span></span> → <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guimenuitem">Your camera</span></span>.
