Hello all, after trying for 2 days to get my USB digital camera to work under Gentoo I'm giving up. gphoto2 is working fine under Mandrake so I guess it's a USB / kernel problem. I've been looking through the forums and couldn't find an answer, so any help would be appreciated! Camera is a Mustek gSmart mini 2, but I don't think it matters.
OK, here is the gphoto2 debug output: -------------------------------------- 0.155793 gphoto2-port-core(2): Loaded '' (^serial) from 'libgphoto2_port_serial.so' 0.156099 gphoto2-port-core(2): '/usr/lib/gphoto2_port/0.5.1/libgphoto2_port_serial.la' is not a library (/usr/lib/gphoto2_port/0.5.1/libgphoto2_port_serial.la: invalid ELF header) 0.156389 gphoto2-port-core(2): '/usr/lib/gphoto2_port/0.5.1/libgphoto2_port_serial.a' is not a library (/usr/lib/gphoto2_port/0.5.1/libgphoto2_port_serial.a: invalid ELF header) 0.156907 gphoto2-port-core(2): Loaded 'Universal Serial Bus' (usb:) from 'libgphoto2_port_usb.so' 0.157196 gphoto2-port-core(2): '/usr/lib/gphoto2_port/0.5.1/libgphoto2_port_usb.la' is not a library (/usr/lib/gphoto2_port/0.5.1/libgphoto2_port_usb.la: invalid ELF header) 0.157462 gphoto2-port-core(2): '/usr/lib/gphoto2_port/0.5.1/libgphoto2_port_usb.a' is not a library (/usr/lib/gphoto2_port/0.5.1/libgphoto2_port_usb.a: invalid ELF header) 0.157721 gphoto2-port-info-list(2): Looking for path 'usb:' (4 entries available)... 0.157908 gphoto2-port-info-list(2): Getting info of entry 2 (4 available)... 0.158095 gphoto2-camera(2): Setting port info for port 'Universal Serial Bus' at 'usb:'... 0.158802 gphoto2-port(2): Setting timeout to 5000 millisecond(s)... 0.159125 gphoto2-port(2): Setting settings... 0.159279 setting/gphoto2-setting.c(2): Creating $HOME/.gphoto 0.159589 setting/gphoto2-setting.c(2): Loading settings from file "/home/mgruenb//.gphoto/settings" 0.162815 gphoto2-setting(2): Setting key 'port' to value 'usb:' (gphoto2) 0.162840 gphoto2-setting(2): Saving 12 setting(s) to file "/home/mgruenb//.gphoto/settings" 0.162982 main(2): Processing 'model' option ('Mustek gSmart mini 2')... 0.163055 gphoto2-camera(2): Setting abilities ('Mustek gSmart mini 2')... 0.163069 gphoto2-setting(2): Setting key 'model' to value 'Mustek gSmart mini 2' (gphoto2) 0.163079 gphoto2-setting(2): Saving 12 setting(s) to file "/home/mgruenb//.gphoto/settings" 0.163461 gphoto2-camera(2): Initializing camera... 0.163530 gphoto2-port(0): Could not find USB device (vendor 0x55f, product 0xc420).
