can't detect Canon A75 digital camera

[Tamas K Papp <tpapp@Princeton.EDU>]

Hi,

When I attach the camera and turn it on, I get a popup window saying:
"Import photos from camera?" --- it must be some kind of gnome thing,
I don't know where it is coming from.  Whether I choose Import Photos,
or simply start gtkam or gphoto2 --auto-detect, it cannot see the
camera.

the relevant section from /proc/bus/usb/devices:

but

% lsusb
Bus 004 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

Bus 001 Device 002: ID 05ac:1000 Apple Computer, Inc.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000

shouldn't the camera appear here too?

My kernel is
% uname -a

Thanks,
