>I know the card reader is seen, lsusb lists it With your favorite file manager, look at /dev/disk/by-id I think you will see what Debian has designated for this card reader. It will be a 'disk' with a standard device name: sd<something> You can then put a line in your /etc/fstab file:
/dev/sd<something> /mnt vfat defaults 0 0 to have it mounted each time you boot the computer If you stick someones memory card or stick into that reader and the reader is mounted as /dev/sdf the memory card you just installed will be /dev/sdf1 and to mount that assuming it will be using a file system like FAT* you will be able to mount it by: #mount -t vfat /dev/sdf1 /mnt With your file manager, go to /mnt/<your memory card or stick> open that and all your say, .jpg images will be lined up just like in your camera. By the way, if it's images from a camera we're talking about here try this one: Move these .jpg files to a folder on your home directory then install and start Google Picasa, a thoroughly astounding piece of non-free software: The best way to load it is to put this in your sources.list: deb http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/ stable non-free main get the signing key: wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | apt-key add - apt-get update apt-get install picasa If you run Gnome or KDE there will be desktop integration for you pussies but if you run a sturdy window manger get an Xterm console and type in: $ picasa then sit back and watch it go. For a corporate piece of non-free software to work like this on Debian, you have to think things are looking up from the bad old days of ms oppression of God's operating system.
