GPhoto for SuSE 8.1 (or equiv)

[Matthew Carpenter]

I have installed both already...  but I don't have a file to access the camera with (such as /dev/ttyS0 and such)  This would help.

Here is what I get in the log:
Feb  4 13:20:39 gandalf kernel: hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 10
Feb  4 13:20:40 gandalf kernel: mdc800.c: Found Mustek MDC800 on USB.

so it recognizes the camera, but it doesn't assign it to a device file.  As I said before, Caldera did this for me.  I know how to use mknod, but is there an "easy" way that would give me warm fuzzies walking my dad through over the phone?  I would like to have a file to "grab on to".

Thanks,
Matt
