I think the first step should be to figure why the files get corrupted
so often. If we manage to fix that then you can check if gthumb causes
any additional problems.

What you posted in your first message suggests to me the camera is
recognized correctly and that udev creates the device node and loads
usb-storage. So far so good, but you also seem to have some sort of
auto-mounting mechanism active (udev creates /dev/sda*, mounting leads
to /media/sda*). How is that done? Can you post the output of the
"mount" command (without any arguments) after the entry in /media has
appeared?
