Hi naomi, I'm sorry to hear you're leaving. If you want to give it another try the cleanest workaround I've found is to do the following:
1) Open a terminal 2) cd /usr/share/gvfs/remote-volume-monitors/ 3) sudo mv gphoto2.monitor ghoto2.monitor.ren I'm not sure if this will break anything else, but I've been using it on my system for 6 months and all my USB devices are working fine.
