You need the hotplug *package*, which should have been a dependency in the 
RPM.  If the hotplug package needs any special kernel options, I guess you 
need in the kernel whatever hotplug needs.  For the redhat kernels, until the 
apparent current rawhide kernel usb problems on -322+, hotplug just works.

If your camera is empty, nothing should happen except a WAV will play saying 
"camera empty".  So if your sound is out and your camera empty, what you 
experience would be normal.  If that's right, try taking a pic and 
reconnecting.  Konqueror should open automatically and transfer the pics -- 
assuming kdebase is installed.
