My camera usually links to the computer through the serial port. As I
have my modem in there, it's a major pain to get the camera connected.
So I decided to get a USB card reader to solve the problem.
I plugged it into one of my USB ports and it's recognised:

I can't figure out how to mount my camera card. I plug it in and the
reader acknowledges it but nothing seems to work when I try and mount.
So I googled and went to the site of the manufacturer Vivanco.
Progress... they say it needs a driver. (Does it? Syslog says /dev/sd*
are being created.) MAC OSX, MSWindows in various flavours... no Linux
driver. No mention of Linux... :(
Am I missing something very obvious or is there something like
ndiswrapper that would work with the driver? I thought that would until
I read the man page... :(

Try mounting /dev/sdc1 with a file system type of vfat.
