Nope. Cheats way of finding what I'm asking is to do:

# ls /dev

Then insert your camera and do it again.

A device name will be printed the second time / missing the first time.

That is the name you use to displace

actual_device_here

Mentioned above. Could be something like sdax or scsix [ where x is a
number or not present ]

All this assumes that your set up can see the camera storage device as
indeed a storage device. If not then once installed do:

# lsusb

and maybe that can help to disclose the file system type after some more
investigation. Just hope the first one above works as things may become
real easy after that.



Finally got the camera back, however, there seems to be no change:

However running #lsusb nets this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# lsusb

Any help?



Did you turn your camera on before the second go at # ls /dev ?

If so then maybe take a look at:

http://www.linux.com/howtos/Flash-Memory-HOWTO/linux-2.6.shtml

and see if this can be of assistance ?

I can't help much here other than to say that I have got udev working OK but while I cannot get to see the contents of the device as user, I still have issues myself to work through.

Let me know if it helps OR not, I can only learn from it at least.
