I'm not sure if its of any use to some, but I was having this problem and found a solution (thats nothing to do with gthumb - I dont have gthumb installed, and so after reading through this post went away to find a solution of my own!)
I was getting the same thing, plug in my camera (an iPhone in this case) and it would appear on the desktop twice, with 2 popups asking me what to do with the camera (run f-spot, do nothing etc) and 1 error -60 box as described above (no error -1). Its obvious that 2 programs are grabbing this when I plug the phone in. I tried removing a few recently installed packages, as recently I've been trying to use itunnel to get into my iPhone filesystem. itunnel requires libiphone0 and libiphone-dev, dependencies of which are libusbmux0 and libusbmux-dev. After removing libusbmux0 and libusbmux- dev - voila, only 1 phone icon on my desktop and only 1 popup (no errors). Does mean i cant use itunnel any more... but it wasnt working any way - boo Hope that helps somebody with a similar problem! -- Ubuntu 8.10 can't mount digital camera showing a window popup message: -60 could not lock the device message https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/285682 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gvfs in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
