I could just mount it and copy pictures. after upgrade: opensuse 11.1. I see it is recognized (lsusb), I see it in devices (/dev/disk/by-id/) but I cannot mount it. I get error that the format it is not recognized (format of media). I just checked this camera on another computer with windows, everything works fine. There might be also problem with scanner (USB) but don't know how to check this since this scanner never did work natively on linux. On the other hand, other USB devices -- USB pendrive, and mp3 player -- are detected and are mountable.

In opensuse 11.0 I was used to an automount of everything. The only automount which works now with 11.1 is usb-sticks, even cd's or dvd's don't work when not mounted manually. The only thing I can remember that my system hung when I installed the last hal update. After the restart the new hal package showed up in yast so I didn't heed this hang-up.

In fact it's a combination of things: a bug in the camera and changes in udev and hal -- which explains why OpenSuSE 10.3 worked and 11.3 doesn't. The camera reports initially that it has 63424 sectors of storage (31.7 MB). Although old versions of udev and hal didn't do this, newer versions try reading the sectors near the end to check for a RAID signature. In your case, udev tried to read 8 sectors starting at sector 63408. Although this should have worked, it didn't -- the camera reported a Medium Error (unrecoverable read error) and then basically stopped working. Every attempted read after that got a Not Ready (medium not present) error; even reads for sectors nowhere near the end. Presumably the same thing would have happened with the older OS if it had tried to read sectors so close to the end. That's the reason the mount failed. You'd think by now Sony could use properly-designed USB interfaces for their cameras, but apparently they can't.
