Can you see the camera memory as an external disk in your file manager? (I suppose you're using Dolphin in KDE or Nautilus in Gnome)

If you can't, maybe you should switch your camera connection mode from "PTP" to "USB Mass Storage". Usually it makes easier to connect to the camera. I'm sorry, I can't help you with this setting, but you should find hot to do it in your camera manual.
