I'm pretty sure this worked at least once since I installed archlinux two or three weeks ago.
But now, whenever I plug in my usb digital camera, I get the usual kde dialog
and I open the digital camera in konqueror, but all I see inside is a blank
zero kb file.

also lshwd outputs:

001:011 USB Imaging: KODAK EasyShare CX7310 Digital Camera (unknown)

The follwing also looked weird. ( btw, I have only 2 usb ports on this P3 )

ls -lR /proc/bus/usb

/proc/bus/usb:

Any idea?
