Plug camera in using special “Kodak” USB cord.
The cord has the label “Kodak” and a ballast.

Kodak EasyShare C123

Turn camera on.
Use file manager to transfer files

#apt-get install xscreensaver (gnome has its own much inferior screensaver)
configure the “ripples” screensaver to pull images from the Pictures directory
