Thanks for the guide. Small typo in pdf file, the file to edit in the end is /boot/config.txt. In vi and nano example it not spelled correctly as: sudo vi /boot.config.txt.
And also, the command for taking photographs is not /opt/vc/bin/raspicam but /opt/vc/bin/raspistill
If you are doing a new install and following the raspi-config steps above you should know that if you select "update" you will have an option to enable or disable camera support. Still working with this fresh install, so I am uncertain the extent to which this does or does not enable the camera, but it seems an important addition to the very nice unofficial guide above.
Update:
From what I can tell the raspi-config update set the /boot/config.txt parameters. I came to this conclusion because after I followed the pdf steps apart from the update of the raspi-config (my initial comment's substance) and then loaded my SD card to edit the /boot/config.txt, the lines adviced to add were already extant.
