I don't use the camera when listed under "USB mass storage devices" - this is
when I try to read from the flashcard in the laptops cardreader. But when I
connect the camera with USB it is also listed under "USB mass storage devices"
as "D40". When I try to connect to the camera this way, Digikam locks up and I
get the following output in a console: 
"Object::connect: No such signal
Solid::StorageAccess::setupDone(Solid::ErrorType,QVariant)
Object::connect:  (receiver name: 'Digikam')"


The problem I reported has 2 parts:

1) Digikam fails to autocreate ISO datebased folders. Creates them in wrong
places and says that it fails to create them.

2) Digikam has problems detecting my camera (Nikon D40) although lsusb all the
time shows it as connected. Choosing Import>Cameras>Add Camera>Auto-Detect
results in an error popup that says: "Failed to auto-detect camera. Please
check if your camera is turned on and retry or try setting it". Retrying
doesn't help.

When i manually add "Mass Storage Camera" and then try to import photos the
connection fails with an error popup saying "Failed to connect to the camera.
Please make sure it is connected properly and turned on. Would you like to try
again?"
