Digital Camers WRT: Smart Media vs. CF media

[Christoph Doerbeck A242369]

ditto... I have a CoolPix 775, picked up a couple of 128MB CFs.  The
CFs mount either directly from the camera using the supplied USB cable OR
via a USB CF reader (kernel module usb-storage in both cases).  I used
redhat 7.2 out of the box (no patches/upgrades required).

Couldn't be happier.  Anyone checked out my ski trip photos on
my website?

I'll show'em at the meeting Wed night :-)
