Bloomin heck!!

I'd just been trying to coax Sarge into creating an fstab entry for it. 
Ubuntu mounted the thing and Nautilus opened a window on it.


I didn't do it _my_ way (forget the Window, and _please_ don't mount rw 
by default), but it did do it.

How do I control that?

Slow, but it didn't hang. Also, I think the Nikons behave like cameras. 
My pentax is more like a disk drive.

This is the one. gthumb worked perfectly well when I started it up 
pointing it at the appropriate directory in the camera.
