Hello,
I just got a Sony DSC-P71 digital camera (wonderful), but it doesn't
seem to be working in linux. I beleive it uses the usb mass storage driver, it seems to use an equivilent driver in windows. I have scsi, usb, usb mass storage modules all loaded.
dmesg after I load the usb-storage module, and then plug the camera in:

Initializing USB Mass Storage driver...
usb.c: registered new driver usb-storage
USB Mass Storage support registered.
hub.c: USB new device connect on bus1/1, assigned device number 3 scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices

I am useing devfs, and /dev/scsi is empty.

cat /proc/bus/usb/devices:
<snip>

E:  Ad=83(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS=   8 Ivl=255ms

<snip>

All this happens regardless of NVdriver being loaded or not.

If someone with one of these cameras or the nearly identical DSC-P31 could help me, it would be appreciated

This camera doesn't use the mass storage driver (you don't show any log lines that indicate the driver claiming the device). Instead I'd try the drivers under "USB Multimedia Devices" (you need v4l support). A quick look doesn't look hopeful, but maybe one of those drivers will claim the device. Anybody on LKML know for sure?

Hi Colin,
peopla at www.gphoto.net made some tests with these cameras model (DSC), almost experimental, P5 model and others, maybe you could provide usefull informations for the gphoto team and help to get more one camera working on Linux (and other OSes).

Bye;)
Scorpion.
