Mounting Sony camera

[osp at aloha.com]

Fresh install of FreeBSD 8.2 and Gnome 2.32.1

With previous FreeBSD sertup this camera mounted fine. Now all I get when I 
connect is (/var/log/messages)


Mar 22 16:21:57 myhost root: Unknown USB device: vendor 0x054c product 
0x0010 bus uhub4

Several different models of USB thumb drives mount fine.

My /etc/rc.conf contains:

# -----------------
moused_enable="YES"
mouse_type="AUTO"
dbus_enable="YES"
hald_enable="YES"
polkitd_enable="YES"
powerd_enable="YES"
gnome_enable="YES"

My /boot/loader.conf:

snd_ich_load="YES"
atapicam_load="YES"
kern.maxsiz="734003200"

My /etc/sysctl.conf:

vfs.usermount=1



So I thought installing gthumb viewer would help. It won't run. From a 
command line I get:

$ gthumb
Failed to initialize GEM.  Falling back to classic.

Which seems to be a video problem. And, I frequently get notifications that 
a video setting could not be set. Sometimes the desktop looks fine, 
sometimes it is at a lower resolution. I installed x.org after gnome2, but 
since then I have done a portsnap and portupgrade -a.

During a boot I see

drm0: <Intel i915G> on vgaci0

All very strange because 8.0 worked fine on the same hardware.

Anything in particular I should reinstall, or just start over?
