Subject: connecting camera to lib70ct
Hi,
I'm looking for a way to get photo's of my camera to the lib70ct. I've
tried
an usb pcmcia card but that one is 32bit and not supported. I think there
are to ways to accomplish this. Get an pcmcia card reader or pcmcia usb
card.
I use linux on my libretto and my camera is an sony P73. Does anyone know
if
it's possible to use an memory card reader which supports linux on the
lib70ct or a supported pcmcia usb controller?
Get a PCMCIA CompactFlash adapter for about $10 US.

Too bad my camera doesn't eat compact flash but sony memory sticks.....
Or do you know of any pcmcia memory stick readers which are linux
compatible?
Yes. I got a pcmcia to SD+MMC+memory stick+another-card-format-I-forgot
converter (a 4 in 1) from my local photo supply store down the block for
about EUR 25,-.
And as linux perceives all these pcmcia to <any format> converters as
ide devices, all modestly recent linux versions should be able to read
them out-of-the-(linux)box.
In rare cases only you might need to add a stanza in /etc/pmcica/config
