Could someone lend me some clue as to how to at least mount the camera as a disk drive so I can get the photos on it? I might poke the gphoto2 folkes about experimenting with drivers too.
What distro are you using? I have a package called "scsitools" installed under Debian. using the command scsiinfo -l it tells me which scsi block devices are registered and all I have to do to mount a USB Mass storage device is something like
Debian Unstable. scsiinfo -l: home:/usr/src/linux# scsiinfo -l
home:/usr/src/linux#
This even though I've got a true SCSI CD-RW installed and working, and an IDE DVD-RW working through ide-scsi.
mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/device -t vfat
(where scsiinfo -l tells me that I have a device /dev/sdb and partition 1 will be the first partition on that device, hence /dev/sdb1)
What does dmesg say after you plug the camera in?

Random sampling, I've tried many others:
