Hoppy, I did all that your website ref. suggests, and PSE6 still does 
not recognize the files.  Elsewhere, the site also says the following:

> "For those who choose to convert these native, proprietary files to 
> the DNG file format, a linear DNG format is the only conversion option 
> available at this time. A linear DNG file has gone through a demosaic 
> process that converts a single mosaic layer of red, green, and blue 
> channel information into three distinct layers, one for each channel. 
> The resulting linear DNG file is approximately three times the size of 
> a mosaic DNG file or the original proprietary file format. This 
> exception is a temporary solution to help ensure that Panasonic's and 
> Leica's intended image rendering from their proprietary raw file 
> format is applied to an image when converted DNG files are viewed in 
> third-party software titles. The same image-rendering process is 
> applied automatically in Camera Raw 5.2 and in Photoshop Lightroom 2.2 
> when viewing the original proprietary raw file format."

I've done that too, to no avail.
