I have printer, scanner and LS120 drive all working well on usb.  I want =

attach my new camera, but am having problems.  It's xD storage format, bu=

least one poster on the Mandrake-Linux newbie mailing list has an xD came=

up and working.

The camera is seen by my system, but it doesn't seem to properly identify=
 it -=20
it's just vaguely reported as a mass storage device, without any details=20
added, so that looks to be the root of the problem.

Everyone else seems to be mounting as /dev/sda1, but my LS120 is sda.  No=

node was created when I plugged in the camera.  Someone said I may need t=
o=20
create a node manually for it to attach to, which I tried, but it doesn't=

make any difference.

Is there anyone out there with any experience of multiple usb storage dev=
ices?
