IIRC, you have to set it up similar to a usb hard drive/zip/ls120. This will
give you the /dev/??? that corresponds to this device. You can then use some
of the graphic/camera applications out there to use it. I haven't done this,
but I'm just going on what I remember what I've read. If I'm wrong, please,
somebody tell me.
