Thanks to all who replied. I'll spend some time over the weekend looking at the various links supplied.
I've purchased a standalone slide and negative scanner that was posted to this list during the Summer. I've gone for this one as it has the option to either scan directly into the PC or if there's a compatability problem onto a SD card. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Veho-VFS-006QV-generation-stand-alone-scanner/dp/B00 1O3HZKA/ref=sr_1_5/280-7036929-4332443?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1247556074& sr=1-5) It's in it's box waiting to be liberated in the very near future!

I do not understand this, sorry, is it a typo? I am very sorry, I must have been half asleep. I bought an attachment for may camera from a supplier in USA which enables me to copy slides in various mountings or negatives, individually or in strip form and is completely Ubuntu friendly. The gadget fits on my point and press and includes supplementary lenses for close up work. I hope this is helpful.
