To use a Sony digital camera with my Debian laptop, all I had to do was to include this line in /etc/udev/udev.rules: BUS="scsi", SYSFS_vendor="Sony ", NAME="camera" This has the effect that when hotplug detects insertion of the camera's connector into a USB port, udev creates the device node /dev/camera. In /etc/fstab I have a line: /dev/camera /mnt/camera vfat rw,user,noauto 0 0 so that when the camera is plugged in, I can: mount /mnt/camera and then view the .jpegs on the camera's file-system or copy them over to the hard disk or whatever. Aa far as I know, that is all that is required, and this simple setup works very well for me, Jim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
