\_ SMTP quoth Mike Starke on 8/22/2002 09:13 as having spake thusly: \_ \_ I am currently in the market for a digital camera, however \_ I want to ensure it works properly with Linux. \_ \_ It's my understanding that I can just plug into a \_ USB port and I can then mount the device. I have never bothered \_ to compile USB into my kernel, for obvious reasons (no USB devices:); \_ I am assuming there is support for a variety of cameras out there? \_ \_ Any tips or suggestions are welcome. Hit the sites for gphoto and sane. It's my understanding that most USB devices are trivial, but I wouldn't promise that. :-) David
