I presume you mean a card reader? I'm not sure it would work, Rob. I have had no luck with my CF/SM reader. I have heard of a couple of SM readers that work, but they are not sold in the UK. CF is the best bet, here. I'll wait for 9.1 - then we'll see if I need to try anything else. Hopefully someone will find some answers and report back to the list. If I find anything, or if 9.1 works, I'll report it, because there are one or two of us with xD cameras, and since both Olympus and Fuji are moving that way there will be more.

[expert] FinePix S304 usb camera - latest attempt of many
I'm still struggling to get my camera (which uses xD memory card) recognised. Here is my latest attempt: I have a removable drive setup for my usb LS120 drive, the fstab line of which was constructed by MCC. Taking that as a model, I added /dev/sdb /mnt/camera auto user,iocharset=iso8859-15,dev,sync,codepage=850,suid,umask=0 0 0 Mounted all. I created a drive icon in the Removable Drive folder. Attempting to mount from here opened a browser, but then said 'Could not connect to host navigation.realnames.com'. Next - had I forgotten to get something read correctly? So, re-boot to make sure. Make sure everything plugged in and powered on, to enable detection. Half way down boot-up messages, one that said (as best I can remember) mount: fs type umask=0 not supported by kernel During hardware detection it hung. After about 5 minutes I switched the camera off, and saw a message about disconnecting 'device 6', I think it was. I am out of my depth here. Can someone please tell me to what extent things are functioning correctly, and give me any pointers as to whether the problem can be tackled, or whether it indicates lack of kernel support for this device? I cannot think of any more logical approaches. Anne -- Registered Linux User No.293302 Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Anne, Have you tryed with a Smartmedia card? I have a Fuji finePix S602Zoom that has the possibility to use bot: xD or Smartmedia cards; I just have tryed with Smartmedia and runs like a charm.

Anne, I added a line in fstab like this: /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera auto user,noauto,nosuid 0 0 I must say that I have supermount disabled (9.0), I created a hd icon on kde selecting /dev/sda1 as device. Also I had to created the directory (mkdir -m 777 /mnt/camera) Under 9.1 rc2 a line similar was automatically added to fstab and into the removable media ico I could create the hd icon.
