I have the same problem. When time is a factor I download my pictures to the iMac and then use my network to move them to my linux machines. This is faster then waiting for the pick up of USB connection to my digital camera. Jerome
uh, why not just get a card reader??? It is much faster, and you can save the extra step thru your Mac , all in one go.. of course, I may just be missing the whole point enterely, I never liked teh idea of plugging in my camera, risking it getting dropped and the sorts of things that can happen on anyone's bust and crowded desks , you know , htose wooden things the computer stuff sits upon.. card reader is good, fast and even betterCHEAO! so if it dies , you toss it and get a new one, and it doesnt' hurt the cards if/when the reader gets knocked to teh ground.. but it sure as shooting will break something in a camera if it's knowcked around much, as I know to my cost. -- j nemo me impune lacessit it's just an afterthought; okay ? : Everytime I lose weight, it finds me again.
