This camera doesn't have any memory cards in it, it just has an internal 
drive, so I have to hook  it up via USB. I rebooted to windows, and it 
worked flawlessly with it, so I managed to import the pictures, but I 
would really like to be able to do it from Linux, as I hate booting into 
windows.
