OK this was very useful indeed, I can get the Camera "seen" now with
digiKam but its the same as before when I used the direct serial
connection. Gphoto2 times out after some retries. This is due to the serial
speed being too fast @ 115k, I cannot seem to change/set the speed in the
xml file for digiKam. There is a digikam bug for this from way back in 2002
in that you cannot select port speeds.
I have managed to grab some info using gphoto2:
gphoto2 --list-files --port /dev/ttyUSB0 --speed="9600" --camera="Sanyo
VPC-G200"
There are 3 files in folder '/'.

#2 P1010002.JPG rd 51 KB image/jpeg
#3 P1010003.JPG rd 48 KB image/jpeg
An interesting exercise..
Maybe it is time to get a newer Camera as it is very slow downloading the
files. :)
A much cheaper option is to use a card reader :-)
