Hi!

Does anyone have Digikam's camera support working correctly? My camera is correctly autodetected, but when I try to grab any photos from it I get the error:

    "Failed to connect to the camera. Please make sure it is connected
     properly and turned on. Would you like to try again?"

Starting Digikam from the command-line reveals that the problem is in Libgphoto, which is spitting out the error "Could not claim the USB device (-53)". I compiled the command-line version of gphoto to see if I could get a less cryptic error, and managed to get the following in it's debug log:

    *** Snip: Lots of stuff working right ***

    *** Snip: Shutdown messages ***

I don't see any likely devices in /dev, so I'm really not sure where to start hunting this down. The only things I can think of that regularly interact with my USB ports are the new beta of Parallels and HardwareGrowler. If both of these are watching my USB devices, could they be causing some kind of conflict?

Just wanted to see if anyone else was having a similar problem, and might have figured out a solution (or gotten a better idea of what's going wrong). Thanks everyone!
