And thanks for the link. I don't think my problem is the same as yours but it got me looking at other F-spot bugs and #426735 got me to tail my .xsession-errors file while turning the camera on. I get this: F-Spot 0.5.0.3 - (c)2003-2008, Novell Inc Personal photo management for the GNOME Desktop Usage: f-spot [options] Options: -b -basedir PARAM path to the photo database folder -? -help -usage Show this help list -i -import PARAM import from the given uri -p -photodir PARAM default import folder -shutdown shutdown a running f-spot instance -slideshow display a slideshow -V -version Display version and licensing information -versions Display version and dependencies informations -v -view view file(s) or directory(ies) which suggests that there is a bug in whatever script tries to start F-spot. Could be using an invalid switch? Is this HAL or udev rules?
