Recent Canons usually use a special protocol, called PTP (picture

true for Ixus 55. Install gphoto2 to download pictures from your
camera.
Interesting. Does gphoto2 not mount the camera on the filesystem?
It does not.
On my Canon A410:
/home/hugoFri Apr 28-09:02:08HDA7# gphoto2 --auto-detect
Model Port
----------------------------------------------------------
USB PTP Class Camera usb:
USB PTP Class Camera usb:001,005
and gphoto2 -P uploads the jpegs and avi's.
FWIW, the gphoto project also offers a tool called gphotofs, which aims
to allow any camera supported by libgphoto2 to be mounted into the
filesystem using FUSE (I have not been able to use it personally with my
Canon A610).
gtkam and gthumb both provide graphic front-ends to gphoto2.
I didn't know that. I'll try that.
