Also note that as I said, gphoto2 does seem to see it through my file
browser (Nemo), and I confirmed by command line:
$ gphoto2 --auto-detect
Model                          Port

Nikon DSC D5000 (PTP mode)     usb:003,004

Only entangle won't see it at all. So what's the deal?
I saw a bug report (bug #21848) from someone who had problems with
one's Nikon D5000, but at least he got the camera connected (and
according to various web pages, other people do too). I don't even got
this.
Just ask me if you need any information. I'll give them while I still
have access to this camera. :-)
