My son got an inexpensive digital camera and I am trying to plug it in

I think the first step is to see (from specifications or whatever) whether the
storage on this camera is a filesystem. If not then you have a whole different
level of trouble.
If it's a filesystem, then keep this in mind -- a lot of cameras require after
plugging it into the computer you press some kind of button on the camera or
from the camera perform some kind of menu option, and THEN Ubuntu pops up
asking whether you want to run a program or just mount it.

Unfortunately I don't have any specs or really know how to read them.
From a link someone posted earlier I got the idea to run fdisk -l and
find out what the device is but there was no difference in the output
whether I had the camera plugged in or not.
