I would like to control my EOS 500D shoot by program which is running on the linux platform. Is there any existing solution? I've tried gphoto2 but it seems not very stable.

Thanks!

I've used gphoto2 in combination with my 550D and did not had any problems. Have you already updated your Camera to the latest firmware? Or check the gphoto2 version - is it the latest? – Yaba Apr 28 '12 at 22:52

I don't know of any other software than gphoto, which you mentioned. The only other solution I can think of is actually running canon's software with Wine. Don't know if it's worth the effort though. I never really tried.
