As root, run hwinfo --usb with the camera connected AND TURNED ON. Scroll through the output for your camera and it should say Device=/dev/sdi, or some other sdx designation. Then mount /media/sdx(whatever letter you have)1. I don't know why the 1 is necessary, but that is the only way mine will connect. AFTER you do the mount command, it will show up on your gnome desktop. You won't be able to umount it, because root mounted it.
I have not had success with it showing up in the Desktop>>Right Click>>Disks list yet. Don't know what that takes.

That worked. After some more fiddling around, I discovered that you can mount it as a user. That way you can unmount it by right-clicking on the icon. You don't have to unmount it as root. Don Henson
