Does so here too.

Same thing here. 50% of the time I can mount the cam, the other half mount just freezes with the load of bulk timout messages. If I can mount it, either ls or cp (or whatever I decide to do on the mounted camera) hangs, becoming unkillable. And it doesn't seem to be usb-storage related, since when I use the cam in Digita mode -- supported by the newer versions of gPhoto2, it also hangs. > > (If you're reading Matthew, I sent you verbose debugging logs last > autumn, but didn't know at the time that the problem is restricted to the > VIA chipset...) I've send mine too, some months earlier.
