Being able to access raw image data is really a camera issue rather than Linux software issue, since most cameras don't save raw image files. If your camera is storing raw image files, you should be able to copy them off as easily as jpeg files.

To display the raw images, you can use the dcraw tool (or a program embedding it, such as the gimp plugin you are probably thinking of).

As for DNG, it is an Adobe spec and its adoption is probably still a way off (if it is adopted at all).
