Did you get prompted by iPhoto to automamtically launch when a connection is detected. My experience with iPhoto started with an old HP digital camera which only connected through a serial connection. Prior to my first Mac I stopped using the serial port on a Windows machine because it took so long to download photos. I used a flash card reader. When I got my iBook I took the flash card reader and plugged it in. When I put the card into the reader iPhoto would launch. Later when I got a Sony Cybershot for my birthday I plugged it directly in and iPhoto prompted me for the option to "Automatically" launch when the camera was connected. I have not seen a settings within iPhoto to activate or deactivate this feature. If you can provide more information that might help.
