Re: Sony DSC-F505V USB broken in linux-2.6.0

[Roland Kwee]

Sorry having bothered list readers, but this problem is fixed with 2.6.1.
Apologies.
Before I posted, I did notice the release of 2.6.1, read the release notes,
but saw nothing related to the Sony camera, and went ahead with the posting.

Keep up the good works!
