Pinco, 

I can confirm that the Fujfilm S 5500 camera works on Feisty. Go to Places, 
Computer and the camera appears as FUJIFILM USB-DRIVEUNIT:disk-1. 

I only have one issue. How do you now block USB devices as the /etc/fstab 
file does not mention the usual sda device for USB disks. 

Regards, 

David
