  I never remember understood why the Canon models have three
different names depending on where the cameras are sold... but if
Digital Rebel == EOS 350D, then you may find the following snippet
useful:

(echo get-config time ; echo set-config time=$(date +%s)) \ 
    | gphoto2 --shell &> /dev/null

  That used to work for me when I had a 350D, but for some reason
doesn't with the 400D.  Dunno about the other models in the series.

PS: The extension seems useful otherwise, just not for me :-)

Roland.
