Well, having stock Debian testing is great but it does come with the responsibility to do things yourself. I followed the instructions for setting up USB hotplug on my laptop to get tranferring photos from my camera working and it worked. The nice thing is that all the ingrediants were there, the camera is supported, the instructions were not only good but they were accurate, and it worked! As soon as I plug in the cameraI get a window that asks me what I want to do with them and then I get to look at them with GThumb.
