Digikam loads just fine. It recognizes and displays the pictures in the

"Import --> Camera", my camera appears in the list (not the specific

the camera are not displayed. I tried entering the camera manually.
Doing this, it wants a mount point which defaults to /mnt/camera. If I
then select "Import-->Camera", I get the message "Failed to connect to
camera". The correct mount point was created. BTW, I AM a member of
the plugdev group.
Colleen, I had the same problem with my Canon G11. Digikam recognises it as a
"Canon Powershot G11" but doesn't display images. I've left it installed, and
installed another instance, just as plain old "USB PTP Class Camera", and it
displays, downloads, deletes just fine.

I will add that gtkam uses PTP for mine as well. I read somewhere a
long time ago that almost all Canon cameras are PTP.
