Panasonic Lumix FX-12 not correctly detected

[Maarten Fonville]

The Panasonic Lumix FX-12
(with DeviceID: Vendor 04da, Product 2372) is detected as a 'Lumix FX-20 (other id)' but doesn't work correctly with libgphoto2.

Currently I removed the device id's from the libgphoto2 udev rules files so it can be used as a standard USB device in Digikam, but using the correct protocol (whatever that may be) would be of course a lot neater.

I don't know how to help with conneting to this device correctly but if you would like me to run some commands/tests on it please drop me a mail.

I accidently added Edgy Backports also to the the list of affected distrubutions (the Launchpad Edge version isn't always that clear ;) ) and there is nowhere to remove it, and I am not sure whether it is affected

This was fixed upstream.

This is not fixed in Hardy. Still the same problem. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5072892

Not fixed.

Reopening completely. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=805254 for complete workaround.

Do you still have the problem in 8.10? If so, please install "gphoto2" and do

  gphoto2 --debug --debug-logfile /tmp/gphoto.debug.txt -L

after the camera got plugged in. Please attach /tmp/gphoto.debug.txt here.
