(Get the code!)
I tried f-spot under an updated Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex install with same laptop (iBook G4) and same camera (Canon PowerShot G5) and it works just fine! I'm not using 8.10 for everyday because it has issues resuming from "Suspend"--pretty important for a travelling laptop. So,
f-spot v0.5.0.3 works
f-spot v0.4.3.1 fails
As 8.04 (Hardy Heron) is a Long-Term Support version and f-spot is the default application when I plug in my camera, I think this fix would be a useful one to backport. (gThumb works like a charm in both releases.)
By the way, how do I set gThumb to be the default application to handle a USB camera? Neither "Preferred Applications" nor "Multimedia Systems Selector" offer to configure this option, and neither gThumb nor f-spot have a preferences setting to become the default USB camera application.
