When I plug my Canon SX100 in, I get this from journalctl -r (left off the rest because it was from before the camera was plugged in):

When I put the SD card in a USB card reader and insert the reader I get:

Hmmm... in the sdcard reader your card is recognized as sdh1. Can you
manually mount the device?

sudo mount /dev/sdh1 /mnt

success,

Yes, it seems to be working now. It's still not taking the camera directly, but at least it's now accepting the card reader.

Thanks.


Only a wild guess. It looks like mtp-probe tries to connect the camera,
even it isn't a mtp device. Maybe the camera mounts correctly if you
remove the mtp packages [1]. But this is only a guess and can help to
narrow down the problem.

[1] mtp-tools, kio-mtp etc

I don't have those packages installed. Nor do I have jmtpfs or gmtp.

Something seems to grabbing the mtp however because I do get my Samsung Galaxy S5 showing up as mtp:/Galaxy S5/ when I connect it. Unfortunately the current problems with Dolphin (crashes when I try to do anything that involves more than one file) means that I can see the files but don't have an easy way of downloading them from my phone.

I was able to get my photos off my Canon camera once I mounted the SD card, but
