Could not get this camera working right using the USB connection (haven't got a docking station to try) on Mepis Linux 3.4.2. I'm using the latest gphoto2 and libgphoto2 (currently 2.16-6) from the debian repos.

When connected, the camera will sometimes connect and download thumbnails, but it will not allow me to download the photos themselves. I tried it under gtkam, digiKam, and gphoto2. At the terminal, I get a response something like this:

"ptp error, response expected" (exact wording may be a little different). I've tried to fix this problem with some of the setup instructions on the gphoto site but had no luck. It worked one time, but I couldn't get it working again.

Hope this gets fixed soon, I think this will likely be a popular camera!
