Canon PowerShot G2 & USB

[Matthew Carpenter]

How did you get it to work in gphoto2?  Does this camera not act as a USB Storage device?  For instance, my Mustek does not.  I use it with gphoto2 and set it up to use the Mustek driver (gphoto's) and the path /dev/usb/mdc800 and everything works fine (well, fine on everything but by laptop which I'm convinced has screwed-up USB hardware inside it).  I do this with COLW311.
