On a friend's WinXP it appears as a drive, but it won't do the same on Linux. I can use Gthumb to import pictures, that works fine, but it's a bit I find it awkward to use. I gave in, and bought a SD card reader. While that's not really practical for getting pictures from a friend's camera, it was a lot better than messing around with cabling the camera to the PC, and faster to read files, too. If you have a USB flash drive, it'd probably be easier to grab the files on your neighbours PC, and copy them there. -- (Currently testing FC5, but still running FC4, if that's important.)
