@seb128 - the description seems pretty similar to this one, though: the computer freezes because it doesn't have resources to keep up with hdd hammering. If I plug the camera off it resumes.
I will report the bug as you suggested and will link it here, so you can decide if they're related. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gvfs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/995886 Title: browse/import photos from camera broken in 12.04 Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Release: 12.04 gvfs-backends: Installed: 1.12.1-0ubuntu1 I have a Canon A20. Camera is detected OK, can display directories. But when I try to enter the directory with photos in it, the window stops responding and process gvsfd-gphoto2 starts continuously increasing its memory usage until I turn the camera off or kill the process. This problem has been repeated on several different machines. Camera and photo browsing works no problem in 11.10.
