What chipset are you running? an Nforce2 chipset uses OHCI: $ cat /proc/config | grep HCI CONFIG_USB_OHCI=y check kernel config for the options below: cat /proc/config | grep SCSI CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDESCSI=y CONFIG_SCSI=y CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS=y CONFIG_SCSI_SYM53C8XX=y CONFIG_SCSI_NCR53C8XX_DEFAULT_TAGS=4 CONFIG_SCSI_NCR53C8XX_MAX_TAGS=32 CONFIG_SCSI_NCR53C8XX_SYNC=20 CONFIG_I2O_SCSI=y And USB: cat /proc/config | grep USB CONFIG_USB=y CONFIG_USB_DEVICEFS=y CONFIG_USB_OHCI=y CONFIG_USB_STORAGE=y CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_SDDR09=y CONFIG_USB_STORAGE_SDDR55=y CONFIG_USB_PRINTER=m CONFIG_USB_HID=y CONFIG_USB_SCANNER=m See that you match this and if you need to recompile, do so. Reboot if neccessary and load your modules. Do dmesg without the camera plugged in. Plug in the camera and dmesg again and note changes. If you still can't mount the camera send these differences back to the list. -- Regards, Ernie 100% Microsoft and Intel free -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
