Greetings; I thought, I hoped, I prayed, that someday I'd be able to plug in my camera, mount it, and read it more than once without having to reboot. Sadly such is not that case. The camera, an Olympus C3020, mounts as a vfat filesystem over usb. It also has a habit of developing poor battery connections and shutting off about 30 seconds after being turned on, but I think I found that tonight, one of the battery contacts was slightly gold colored, where the other one was bright and shiney. Some work with a pencil eraser may have slowed that down. But whyinhell do I have to reboot just because a $500 camera is a flake? The usb system can see it connect once only, and once its dropped offline, the usb system can only see the reconnect if I reboot first. I'm rebooting this thing more often than I would a windows box! -- No Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
