RCA Lyra 1090

I have an RCA Lyra 1090 and want to get it to work under SuSE 9.1 kernel 2.6.9. When I plug it in, it is automatically mounted as subfs, but says that there is no media when I go to access it. When I mount it as anything else besides subfs and vfat it says: 'mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1, or too many mounted file systems' and when I mount it as vfat I get this: 'mount: /dev/sda1: can't read superblock' I heard somewhere that a digital-camera driver works, but 1. I don't know which it is 2. I don't know how to load the driver. can anyone help?
