The only card readers I've seen not work under Linux are the ones
built into laptops.

I haven't seen a USB card reader that didn't work with Linux.  Any
basic reader should do the trick.

That said, I've seen many cameras that do not have a proper filesystem
on the SD card, the only way to get the pictures is to use the USB
cable. Hopefully this is not the case. If possible, take the SD card
to the store, or to someone else's computer that has a card reader,
and make sure you can get the files off of it that way first.

You may also want to go to a store that carries Olympus cameras and
ask if they have a replacement USB cable. It is a special cable (Type
A -> Mini 12-pin,) but it is used by a wide range of Olympus cameras.
