Does your camera show up in /proc/scsi/scsi ? If so, that might give you a clue about what device to use. Did your system make /dev/sda, etc. for you or, did you have to create them yourself. On my Mandrake 8.2 system, sda was made automatically and linked to /dev/scsi/host1/bus0/target0/lun0/disc. I never did get my Olympus D-520 (also usb mass storage) to work. I ended up buying a SanDisk 6 in 1 card reader. This reads memory sticks as well as the SmartMedia cards that my camera uses. The SanDisk reader is working.
