Ubuntu
testdisk package

I need to find lost phots from F-spot photo manager.

Asked by Ken Anderson

Several weeks ago I experienced a crash.

I opted to have the info sent to whoever receives it and continued w/ my day. Later that day I opened F-Spot, my photo management program.

My 1800 some pictures where not there.

I went to Synaptic Package Manager and downloaded a 'file retriever program' but do not know where it loaded to nor how to use it.

I don't mean to sound like a bumbling idiot but does anyone know how I might retrieve my photos?

Maybe try PhotoRec.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery

Due to crash fsck maybe moved broken files to lost&found.

Or try 'find'.

Should be under system administration.

If not you need to open 'main menu' in system preferences, navigate to administration and check mark it there.
