Downloaded latest libgphoto2 and gphoto2

My camera is plugged into the USB port on the back of my computer. It is on. I have the latest gphoto2 and libgphoto2 compiled and installed. My kernel is a self compiled 2.6.10 with USB compiled in.

Camera works on Windows XP Pro. Doing a research article on Linux comparing the Linux desktop with Windows. It is due in one week to test the feasibilty of replacing Windows with Linux. The camera is a Canon USB camera. Here are the debug messages I get:
