Canon PowerShot G2 & USB

[Alan Jackson]

Well, magically gphoto2 knows where to find it - /dev/bus/usb/001/xxxxxx

But I can't figure out how to get a mountable filesystem out of it. Although, gphoto2 works so well,
I'm almost not caring - except I'd just like to know how to do it.

I use it with gphoto2 and set it up to use the Mustek driver (gphoto's) and the path /dev/usb/mdc800 and everything works fine (well, fine on everything but by laptop which I'm convinced has screwed-up USB hardware inside it).  I do this with COLW311.
