Okay, here is a last try. Let's compare the package we have. I have: $> dpkg -l *usb* *kam* *gphoto* *dbus* | grep ^ii | gawk '{print $1, "\t" $2, "\t" $3}'

ii      dbus    1.1.1-3
ii      dbus-x11        1.1.1-3
ii      digikam         2:0.9.2-4
ii      gphoto2         2.3.1-2
ii      gtkam   0.1.12-2.2
ii      kamera  4:3.5.7-2lenny1
ii      libdbus-1-3     1.1.1-3
ii      libdbus-1-dev   1.1.1-3
ii      libdbus-glib-1-2        0.74-1
ii      libdbus-qt-1-1c2        0.62.git.20060814-2
ii      libgphoto2-2    2.3.1-8
ii      libgphoto2-2-dev        2.3.1-8
ii      libgphoto2-port0        2.3.1-8
ii      libndesk-dbus-glib1.0-cil       0.3-2
ii      libndesk-dbus1.0-cil    0.4.2-1
ii      libusb-0.1-4    2:0.1.12-7
ii      libusb-dev      2:0.1.12-7
ii      usbutils        0.72-8
ii      xserver-xorg-video-sisusb       1:0.8.1-3

Now lets compare our gruops. I belong to the following: me@bijli 17:54:03{dat}$> groups
hs adm dialout cdrom floppy audio src video plugdev staff netdev camera

I think plugdev and camera are the most important. adm certainly shouldn't make any difference here.

->HS
