Thing is, I DON'T CARE if gphoto2 supports it or not, because I found a better solution anyway. Using a CF card reader allows me to access my pictures without having to turn the camera on, and I can just mount it as a filesystem, which is more convenient than having to use a specialized utility. I have no idea why I couldn't get gphoto2 to work with my camera. Unfortunately, gphoto2 is rather lacking in documentation as far as I could tell (I read the man page, looked in /usr/share/doc/gphoto2, and checked the project's web site). Additionally, at the time that I tried this, Debian unstable did not have the latest beta, which had been released some two months or more previously. But then a friend suggested I just use a CF card reader, and that worked well and seemed preferable on general principles, so I didn't bother pursuing gphoto2 any further. Craig
