Hi Chris, I am very happy to receive your email about this problem. Thank you for looking into it. Your suggestion is a very good one. The SD card that was not working, was one I purchased before I got my current camera. My old camera was a cheap one, brand name 'Concord'. My new one is a Canon Powershot A430'. Also, all cards have been used successfully in my Palm Tx pda. So, I put the suspect SD card in the Canon camera, and did a low level format. I took one photo as well, before returning it to the Ubuntu machine. Now it is detected, and Ubuntu even offers to import photos from it. So, I guess the old camera (or the original format on the card when I bought it - as I can't remember ever formating it) wasn't quite standard or correct? Anyway, it's working now, so I suppose we can't really blame Ubuntu. In a way I'm glad, as I have become a fan of Ubuntu :-) Thanks again for your follow up on this. This great level of support makes Ubuntu even better!
