USB issues

This morning I tried out transferring photos from our camera to our Asus EEE PC, and was lucky I did: the (Linux) PC didn't recognize the cameras, so I couldn't transfer photos.

Luckily, there's a simple way around the problem: get a USB Compact Flash (or whatever you use) card reader. We had one that I'd bought from Office Depot a year or two ago, and it transferred the photos just fine.

Whew!

In other USB news: our Asus PC doesn't recognize our MP3 players, so check those USB devices before you arrive overseas.

I checked out our new Panasonic camera and our old Fuji camera and they both worked fine with the EEEPC laptop. Your mileage may vary...
