In fact I had already tried those before writing to the mailing list. Finally one of my friends (not in mailing list) suggested me to install 'shotwell' ( https://archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/shotwell/), and it solved the problem. After installing 'shotwell', when I made the camera 'on' after connecting to my PC's USB the camera got mounted and the icon came up on the Desktop. I reported it here as an information service. Thank you all. dd
