That page is illuminating...seems to suggest the 320 should work with
gphoto2 in "PTP mode". If you can select the connection method on the
camera somehow maybe you weren't doing it right, otherwise perhaps this
is a bug. Oh, did you try running gtkam in root mode? It won't detect my
camera if run as a normal user, guess there's a permissions problem
somewhere...
