this is what I've found from running dmesg
hub.c: new USB device 00:1d.0-1.2, assigned address 8
usb.c: USB device 8 (vend/prod 0x40a/0x530) is not claimed by any active
driver.
and this is what I found in /proc/bus/usb/devices

and James Zuelow just emailed me and suggested I compile the dx2xx
module but I looked and it looked like it was already compiled.
I tried loading it didn't seem to change the devices file.
so looks like I'm back to the drawing board. I did find a program jusb
that seems to suggest that it will work with cameras that us PTP which
my camera does but I'm having trouble getting it installed I guess I'm
going to have to do some more reading on it and see if I can't get it to
install. thanks for the suggestions though, and if you come up with
anything else I would appriciate it.
