When you install gphoto2, it installs a whole lot of camera drivers (looks 
like about 50) in /usr/lib/gphoto2.. it 'just worked' for me (: Occasionally 
gphoto2 has trouble detecting your camera, but the solution for that for me 
was to go into /usr/lib/gphoto2 and delete all of the drivers for cameras 
that i know arent mine.
