Digital camera not working anymore

Question

I'm pretty sure this worked at least once since I installed archlinux.
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
0k file.
EDIT:..
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

no, that means that you have to apply the patch when building, so in the PKGBUILD.
Save the patch linked in the bug report as gphoto2-2.1.99-canon-segv.patch, and use the following PKGBUILD
pkgname=libgphoto2
pkgver=2.1.99
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="The core of gphoto2 software. It is a portable library to gives access to more than 400 digital cameras."
url="http://www.gphoto.org"
depends=(glibc libusb libexif libjpeg)
conflicts=()
backup=(etc/udev/rules.d/gphoto.rules)
source=(http://dl.sourceforge.net/gphoto/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz
convert-usermap-libgphoto2.sh gphoto2-2.1.99-canon-segv.patch)
install=(libgphoto2.install)
build() {
cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
# canon-segv patch
patch -p0 < $startdir/src/gphoto2-2.1.99-canon-segv.patch || return 1
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-exif
make || return 1
make prefix=$startdir/pkg/usr install
mkdir -p $startdir/pkg/usr/share/libgphoto2/$pkgver/linux-hotplug
cp -r packaging/linux-hotplug/usb* $startdir/pkg/usr/share/libgphoto2/$pkgver/linux-hotplug
# install udev rules
$startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver/packaging/linux-hotplug/print-usb-usermap >> $startdir/src/gphoto.usermap
$startdir/src/convert-usermap-libgphoto2.sh $startdir/src/gphoto.usermap
sed -i -e 's/SYSFS{idVendor}=="0000"/#SYSFS{idVendor}=="0000"/g' gphoto.rules
install -D -m 644 gphoto.rules $startdir/pkg/etc/udev/rules.d/gphoto.rules
#libtoolslay
find $startdir/pkg -name '*.la' -exec rm {} ;
but as I said, I don't know if it is related to your problem
