I get exxactly the same as above with my Powershot A630. If I plug camera in and select import photos when edgy detects the camera, I get:
An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB device'): Could not claim interface 0 (Operation not permitted). Make sure no other program or kernel module (such as sdc2xx, stv680, spca50x) is using the device and you have read/write access to the device. -- GThumb fail to import photos from Canon S1 IS https://launchpad.net/bugs/22978 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
