Pentax digital camera



I recently tried hooking up a Pentax digital camera to a laptop running
Woody, I saw on a web page somewhere it is *supposed* to work via
usb-storage. I loaded the usb mass storage module, but did not get any
devices that looked relevant (I use devfs). Should it appear as some
sort of "scsi" device? There was nothing in /dev/scsi.

I recompiled my kernel with scsi disk support too, as the "USB Digital
Camera HOWTO" mentioned the device should be something like /dev/sda1.
Loading this module didn't help either. I didn't see anything being
detected when running dmesg either:

Jul 20 14:46:35 bushbaby kernel: SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
Jul 20 14:46:35 bushbaby kernel: usb.c: registered new driver usbdevfs
Jul 20 14:46:35 bushbaby kernel: usb.c: registered new driver hub
Jul 20 14:46:35 bushbaby kernel: Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...
Jul 20 14:46:35 bushbaby kernel: usb.c: registered new driver usb-storage
Jul 20 14:46:35 bushbaby kernel: USB Mass Storage support registered.

That's all I see. The howto has a whole bunch of other more interesting
things that I don't see. What am I missing? I didn't have usbmgr, is it
necessary, would it help? What *should* I see under devfs? Where do I
get "SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices"?

The camera was an "Optio 230".

Thanks,
Hugo van der Merwe
