unplug the camera, run dmesg, plug it back in, run dmesg..  compare.. 
you should be able to find the camera.. I'm not 100% sure on linux, but 
FreeBSD detects USB drive as /dev/daX, linux doesnt distinguish between 
devices.. so it could be /dev/sdb, sdc, sdd, sde depending on the number 
of storage devices you have connected.  Assuming the camera is /dev/sdc 
you would:
$ mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/camera
on linux.. then your camera's pictures would be under /mnt/camera 
(assuming /mnt/camera exists before the mount command)
