My Kodak camera suddenly stopped supporting usb recently. I'm using
Debian Sid. Same symptoms you described above. After some fiddling
around, I realized it was a permission problem - worked fine as root.
Solved by adding plugdev group to my user account. I guess this
happened during installs of a recent gphoto update - same problem
on four machines.
