Summary: Kodak LS753 upload error

Initial Comment:
I got a generic error trying to upload a simple text file to my Kodak
LS753. I ran the following as root:

echo foo > foobar
LANG=C gphoto2 --debug -a &> foo
LANG=C gphoto2 --debug -u foobar &> foo2

I've compressed and attached the output of detection of camera abilities
and the upload process. The upload facility does work with the Kodak
supplied Windows EasyShare software. I will try to supply a usb spy log from uploading on Windows soon.

The camera abilities are like so:
Abilities for camera             : Kodak LS753
Serial port support              : no
USB support                      : yes
Capture choices                  :
                                 : Capture not supported by the driver
Configuration support            : yes
Delete files on camera support   : yes
File preview (thumbnail) support : yes
File upload support              : yes

my experience regarding upload shows that while  
cmaeras report "Upload" ability they only use it   
to implement PictBridge direct printing.  
  
so I think the camera does not support it and we just 
report it badly.

I tried uploading to the cam when it wasn't empty, but it
didn't work. I've attached an upload attempt to upload foo
to the camera:

echo foo > foobar
LANG=C gphoto2 --debug -u foobar &>
kodak-ls753-upload-error-nonempty.txt

This was when there was about 5 photos on the internal
memory and no memory card inserted.

ah, i see. 
 
our upload code does not handle completely empty upload 
storages.  
 
I will have to fix this :)

gphoto -L works fine, with and without files on the camera.
I've attached a listing from gphoto2 --debug -L if that will
help (from when the camera was empty).

The usb snooplog calls getnumobjects which returns 0. 
 
We call getobjecthandles which returns a 0 array, for 
some reason we get an error then.

does gphoto2 -L work? it fails already in the regular 
routines.

Using SnoopyPro:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/usbsnoop

I captured the attached log of uploading a file named 'foo' containing the bytes 'bar' to the internal memory card and the 256Mb memory card.
