I'm not familiar with that one exactly, but I expect it's like the other Nikon cameras. Plug the USB cable in and run "dmesg" a couple of seconds later. You should see messages to say that a new (SCSI) disk has appeared and then you can mount it. There's a good chance that a window will pop up with the newly mounted file system in it. If not, then there's a better chance that you'll have a new line in /etc/fstab created for you which will let you "mount /mnt/camera". If not, you can always fall back to "mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/camera".
Yes..it works: I have to mount with the Disk Management because no automatic windows pop-up (as a newbie what shall I change in Fstab???)
gphoto doesn't seems to support Coolpix 3100. I made a short test with Ptp protocol, but no chance.
gphoto also knows about Nikon cameras, but I don't use it myself, I just copy the files directly from the camera using "cp" (actually using a little program I wrote called "cptree")
jch
Anyway, the easiest way is to connect a Compact Flash Reader, that is really cheap today, and job is done.
Tnx a lot for help
