Bug Description
First time I found out that this camera is not mountable in OpenSuse. It seems a lot of Linux distributions while moving up to newer kernels dropped support for valid, connected via USB, cameras.
Facts:
* Sony Cybershot DSC-S40
* new Ubuntu 10.04 RC
The camera should be seen as external "drive" for the system, and it is is listed in connected devices list, for example:
dir /dev/disk/by-id/
But when you try to mount it, it gives an error that user is supposed to give filesystem (it is vfat), when this parameter is added to mount (-t vfat) then mount complains it cannot read superblock.
Please note, that all older Linux distribution could mount and use this camera, I don't which version for Ubuntu it was though.
