new camera, digikam can't see it

Greetings all; 

The camera is a Canon pssx429is(bk)
Otherwise called a PowerShot SX420IS
plugged a match usb cable into it, but while camera cts differently with 
usb power applied, there is zilch logged, either in syslog or dmesg 
indicating a connection is available.

Canon has only drivers using nfc, or wifi, and only for the last 4 
versions of (spit) winders.

Is there any hope of getting the images out of it short of removing the 
card and putting it in a reader? I'd rather not do that, so while as a 
camera it beats my nikon l100 by a country mile, I'll take it back for a 
refund based on lack of image access by any means under linux. Mounting 
it in a reader does work, but leaving it in the camera makes buckets 
more sense. I've taken one pix, so an ls -lR of /media/usb0 gets this:
 gene@coyote:~$ ls -lR /media/usb0
/media/usb0:

Does this provide any clues as to how to do it with the card still in the 
camera? Digikams autoscan finds nothing.

Thanks for any clues folks.
                                   
Cheers, Gene Heskett
