I have a Coolpix 995 and it works flawless with RH 8, so I guess it will with any distro. I just have it mounted to /mnt/camera, the device on my computer is /dev/sde1
Just connect your camera to your computer and look it up in the hardware browser or something similar.

NOTE I think Aeon mean /dev/sda1 (not sde1)

I access photos on my Flash Card like this

1. I create a dir /media/fc (my SuSE 8.1 Linux uses dir /media instead of /mnt)

# mkdir /media/fc

2. I mount the Flash Card (it is conneced to my computer via a USB Flash Card reader)

# mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /media/fc

3. I change dir into the Flash Card

# cd /media/fc

4. I ls and cd till I find the jpg files. My Nikon Coolpix 2000 puts them onto the Flash Card here

(Flash Card) /dcim/100nikon/

so when the Flash Card is mounted per step 2 above, my full path is

/media/fc/dcim/100nikon/imageshere.jpg


p.s. I have not yet tried to connect the Coolpix 2000 directly to the PC.
