Sebastien,

This is all very interesting! We do not use MTP (or libmtp), but we do use gphoto2, which does a device query in order to locate connected cameras. We also query the udev system looking for cameras on our own in order to properly associate a USB ID with gphoto2's names. (Long story.)

Although I can't say the bugs you've linked to completely shed light on what's going on here, it does point to some possible problems. It's interesting that the Kensington mouse comes up again in another bug and is specifically mentioned in the patch. As mentioned earlier, we acquired the mouse but couldn't repro it here.

I need more time to look at all this information more thoroughly. Thanks for the links!
