Hey all,

The camera's usually sitting on the USB port on my wife's machine, but she
was booted into Linux so I couldn't get images off it. So I tried to get
it to work on my (Win2K) laptop. I sepnt about 21 hours looking for
drivers and tech specs on this, as it was not working, and then I saw a
couple of link for getting it working under Linux.

A lot of people have said they got it working on 2.2.18 using the "Sony
usb-storage patch". I couldn't find that patch, but I figured I'm using
2.4.6, so maybe it'll just work.

And it did! All you do is modprobe usb-storage (or compile it in) and
mount -t vfat /dev/sda1! Awesome! It works BETTER than it does under
Windows! Don't need any special *cough*gphoto*cough* software to get the
images off, either (:

Oh, this was all so I could geet this picture of my cat online:

If anyone here's good enough at match to calculate how many twists his
spine's doing, let me know.
