USB device in Mepis
 
HI,
I obviously have a problem otherwise I would not be posting here its driving me around the bend.
Although I have been using Linux for a few years, when ever there is a problem I tend to just get my dad to fix it and now im at uni and all on my own :eek:

Ok the Problem
> I have a Canon IXUS i7 digital camera and when ever I plug it into my Linux system (mepis) it reconises that its there (YAY) with a pop up window and asks me what I want to do.

> So I click open in new window hoping to get a folder with all my images in it.

BUT no, OH no


>I get a folder which proves that mepis knows a CAMERA is conected via the USB port.

>I click, Then it glitches, Loads, another foler with exactly the same name over and over :cry:

system:/media/camera/camera/camera/camera/camera (FOREVER)

> This problem only happens with my digtal camera, Mepis has always reconised CDs and DVDs when inserted into the computer

:scratch:

Has any one had this problem?
and can they help me fix it?
PLEASE

Google using "canon ixus mepis" Some of the hits look promising.

I find it easier to simply connect a USB card reader and grab files that way.
