I have a similar problem with my PhotoSmart 618 on an Athlon 800 with VIA 
KT133 chipset - but different error messages - I get a couple of
bulk transfer / msg timeout messages, and then the copying operation just 
sits there.  It'll often transfer several megabytes before locking up - often 
eight or nine...

Anyway, I have a suspicion that the problem is related to the UHCI drivers 
rather than the mass-storage drivers, because I've recently tried the 
self-same cam (and exact same kernel - 2.4.13) on an old P200MMX I've been 
given (Intel 430TX chipset) and it seems to work perfectly so far...

I also found a message via Google, written *ages* ago by someone who used to 
use this model camera with an OHCI chipset with no problems, but suffered the 
same problem as me when using a VIA chipset and UHCI drivers.

Anyone have any ideas what the problem could be?

All the best,
