Yes, I use gpsbabel on a debian unstable box. I use a "frontend" that consists of a small shell script, that checks if the camera is plugged in, and if so copies the images to a folder in my gps directory. It is simple because it lacks any flexibility at all ;-)<BR>

gpsbabel -i garmin -o gpx /dev/ttyS0 ~/gps/${DATE}w.gpx<BR>

if `grep -q sda1 /proc/partitions` ; then<BR>
mount /mnt/camera<BR>
mkdir -p ~/gps/${DATE}<BR>
cp -a /mnt/camera/*/*/*.[Jj][pP]*[gG] ~/gps/${DATE}/<BR>
