I'd love to get my Canon G2 working with Linux. I'm yet to find a simple dummies guide to "Here are the first things to do to using your digital camera under linux." (I'm using suse 8.1, Kde 3.0.5).
In my opinion the easiest method is get a card reader and use it to mount your card and access it like a drive. If you have compact flash, I can recommend Sandisk, available at Best Buy for around $23.00. If you have some other kind of card, perhaps you can tell us and people with that type of card can tell you what reader they found that works. To mount my compact flash in SuSE 8.0, all I have to do is type mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/compactflash (replace /mnt/compactflash with whatever mount point you create). I can then access the photos on the card just like another hard drive. *************************************************** Powered by SuSE Linux 8.0 Professional KDE 3.0.0 KMail 1.4 This is a Microsoft-free computer Bryan S.
