If you mounted your camera (which prolly should be removable on Mdk) on /mnt/camera, you'd have to do that as root i.e. make the camera/ directory and mount the device there, thus only read/writable as root. The created entry in /etc/fstab (like I said prolly /mnt/removable/) allows you to mount it as normal user and thus read it as that same user. Next time you reboot or connect the camera, supermount will take over and you even won't have to mount the thing....I'm realy talking first time here (and before). Gawd, I hate to think what Femme's going to do with that last sentence;) Good luck, HarM -- Mandrake HowTo's & more: http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
