Well, on the laptop, with the same packages installed but with the 
kernel rebuilt with tmpfs, I plugged in a card reader with a camera 
memory stick in it and BINGO, gphoto popped up and asked if I wanted to 
import the pictures!

Running mount shows:

rickm@rickmvnote:~$ mount
/dev/hda3 on / type auto (rw,errors=remount-ro)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)
/dev/sdd1 on /media/usbdisk type vfat 
(rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,sync,noatime,quiet,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=077)

Now I'll rebuild the desktop with tmpfs, and perhaps all will be well.
