I'm using 6.10, with no backports enabled that I know of.

Like, it appears, several other people, gthumb pops something up, but
the.n complains about not being able to access the device.  Running
"sudo gphoto" works swimmingly well.

I too tried the 'SUBSYSTEM!="usb_device", GOTO="libgphoto2_rules_end"'
hack, but that didn't help.

I am in the "plugdev" group; however, the device is created as owned by
root, as shown by ls -l in /proc/bus/usb/003

total 0
crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 256 2007-05-12 18:48 001
crw-rw-r-- 1 root root 189, 259 2007-05-13 19:43 004

After I "chgrp plugdev 004", it reads:
...
crw-rw-r-- 1 root plugdev 189, 259 2007-05-13 19:46 004

and I can run gphoto from the menu and it works fine.

The workaround of running sudo gphoto / photo-app-of-choice is slightly
painful, but not a showstopper.  It would be nice to know why it's being
created as the wrong group, though.  (That seems to be the issue, and
not users accidentally being left out of the "plugdev" group.)
