Summary: Canon powershot s410 not detected

Initial Comment:
Hi,

My canon powershot s410 digital elph isn't recognised and I can't import in gthumb nor f-spot. The model is listed in gthumbs camera list but when i select it manually it still can't connect to the camera.

When I do: $ gphoto2 --auto-detect I get:
Model                          Port                                            
----------------------------------------------------------
Canon Digital IXUS 430 (normal mode) usb:            

While it's a canon powershot s410 digital elph, it seems it detects the camera wrong as an ixus in stead of the elph, maybe this is related to the problem? 

Thanks.

please check if the commandline tool works. (as user, and if it does not,
then as root)

gphoto2 -L

if it works, it is likely a different problem.

The distro I use is paldo, one of the devs of paldo said to me the problem
might be gphoto related, also because the problem affects both f-spot and
gthumb. Is there more info I could give which might help you track the
problem?

which distro?

if gphoto2 -L   does work as user, then it likely is a different problem

Ah ok, but I still have the problem that gthumb and f-spot can't connect
to the camera to import pictures. They don't autodetect the camera and when
I choose it manually from the camera list in gthumb I get an error
message:
An error occurred in the io-library ('Bad parameters'): Could not find USB
device (vendor 0x4a9, product 0x30ba). Make sure this device is connected
to the computer.

the USB id is the same for hboth IXUS 430 and PowerShot S410, 
and they are in fact the same camera.

This is a common branding difference between the US and Europe/Japan, 
so for almost all Canon cameras there are 2 names.

And when I ask to list files it works and does mention the correct model
while not with --auto-detect:
gphoto2 --list-files
Detected a 'Canon:PowerShot S410 Digital ELPH (normal mode)'.             
    
There are 57 files in folder '/'.
