===============================================
As root, just doing a
mount
may return where the film card was mounted during recognition.
If not
A core issue is identifying the DEVICE used as your film card was
recognition
Looking at my /var/log/syslog, my relevant PCMCIA section is:

that is my modem is located on /dev/ttyS1
In your syslog acessible as ROOT
there should be a similar record, which indicates which device was
mounted.
Then as root
mount /dev/WHAT -t whichtype /mnt
would make it accessible as a file system.
Let us know when you succeed/progress.
Perhaps someone has produced a FILMCARD HOWTO at www.linux.org
