Hi Laurent!

I've tried to follow your suggestion, installing libgphoto2 2.5 from experimental. The problem is not solved. The error reported by dmesg is:

gphoto2 worked with canon powershot sx240 till some months ago, so the camera was supported by gphoto2. On http://gphoto.org/proj/libgphoto2/support.php canon powershot sx240HS is declared to be supported.

Thanks
