I use getpix as you know, but the trouble is this camera ( my own,a cheapie by the name of epsilon1.3 rather than my relatives)is not recognised by the usb hub.Well it is recognised and shows up in the hub but cannot be mounted. To get around this problem I have to download from Camera via windblows where it is recognised as a removable storage device , and copy across to mandrake. So I cannot really use getpix for this purpose. I've spent many hours trying to get my camera mounted by mandrake 8.2 as a mass storage device without success,read everything I can find,but whereas I can get other makes of camera to work this one does not, but I suspect it is a new kernel job . So for now getpix is out. Is "ahead" a bash or perl script. I will look into it. regards, John -- John Richard Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED]
