I have found this. The author points to a broken ubuntu package.
http://bugs.calibre-ebook.com/ticket/5467

About the bug renaming, should I file a new bug for the lack of detection of 'Sony PRS-300'?
I think the Kindle problem has the same origin (lack of calibre-mount-helper). The debug lines say it crystal clear (mine were exactly the same except for the affected device). The device is detected but the program fails when it doesn't found calibre-mount-helper.
So, being different devices affected, I think the bug name should be keep generic.
Could somebody confirm if other devices (apart from Kindle and PRS-300) are detected by the ubuntu packaged 0.6.42?

By the way, my device is detected by calibre 0.6.42, when it's installed with the binary installer from its home page, besides it always worked fine on windows with older calibre versions.
