I'm not sure what USB methods your particular camera uses, but mine (an Olympus Camedia) uses one of the popular smart cards for storage -- which is basically a usb-storage device, which in turn utilizes the SCSI subsystem. What all this amounts to is that I have the following entry in my /etc/fstab: /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera vfat user,rw,noauto,unhide 1 0 And then all I have to do is 'mount /mnt/camera' to be able to access it. Give it a try and see if that might work. -- Matthew Weier O'Phinney [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
