Sure. First, gphoto list archives reveal that the D-490Z should work with the
D-450z driver [1].
You'll have to hack gphoto2 in some way to get it to use that driver for your
camera. I compiled gphoto2 from the deb-src package with [2] this hack to
get my Canon A40 working. Your "hack" may be even simpler because, if my
googling is correct, the D-490 is not USB (otherwise you'd need to tell the
driver the USB vendor and product ids). Before hacking the source I'd try
forcing the model as the D-450z.
Hope this helps,
David Richmond
