Cool, I already use ntp regularly, but didn't know that gphoto2 could do 
that.

Well... only the CVS HEAD does. They haven't released any version with 
code for handling the DG100 in it.

Now if only I could do a decent build of digiKam for os X... The sad (or 
best) thing is that nothing (not even expensive complex commercial 
stuff) comes close to digiKam in terms of managing a photo library.

Cheers,
