I am no expert, so here are a few simple suggestions that might get you
started or maybe just waste your time.

Have you tried seeing what is in /var/log/messages just after you plug it in
and turn it on? That might give you some ideas. Also, there might be some
helpful info in /proc/scsi/scsi and / or /proc/scsi/usb-storage-0/1 (it is a
1 on my machine, but i don't know what it might be on yours).

lsmod will show you what modules are loaded --- i think you need
usbcore, usb-storage, and usb-uhci. Wasn't there some problem on some
machines with that last module?

Anyhow, my fuji camera is recognized just fine and does show up as sda1.
Works great, so it is possible. Good luck.
