gphoto install

[Harry G]

I have a Olumpas C-3020Z camera, and a smartmedia reader by PNY.  Both 
installed well when I installed suse 8.0, and both are USB.  Both work great.  
As for editing, I don't use gPhoto, but I use Compupic from Photodex.  They 
have a free Linux trial version, and for basic manipulation, it works great.  
For more detailed work, I use Gimp.

Hope that helps some.  Let me know if there are other specifics you need me to 
find out.  Sorry I am such an old fart newbie.  (Brain don't work so well 
anymore.  Damn 70's......)

Now I am FAR from being able to be of much help yet, but I am willing to check 
certain parameters for you if you wish.

I do know they both use a DOS filesystem, and use the device  /dev/sda1 for 
the reader, and /dev/sdb1 for the camera.  (These can be any port you 
choose).  The mountpoints were assigned /dos/E and /dos/F.
