Works very well with Linux kernels 2.4.22 and onwards. I access it like a SCSI disk (/dev/sda1) and I have no problems whatsoever with it. On an amusing note, file transfer to and from the camera is faster in Linux than in Windows.

Plug it in and slackware detects it with no problems as removable media, mount it with /dev/sda1 and you're good to go!
