bmhm,

Okay -- that tells me that the problem is occurring when gphoto2's camera detection routine is executed. It's creating a vicious loop in Shotwell: Shotwell goes to detect if any cameras are present in the system, causing the mouse (or other device) to disconnect and reconnect. Shotwell is notified that a device has connected to the system and it goes to detect if any new cameras are present in the system ... on and on.

You're running an old version of gphoto2. Could you upgrade to the latest (2.4.10.1)? It's here:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/gphoto/files/

Then see if you can reproduce your problem in Shotwell.

Thanks,

-- Jim
