[gentoo-user] Sansa Clip+ no device for expansion card

2010-01-19 Thread Michael George
I just got a Sansa Clip+ and when I plug it into my gentoo box, it sees
the device as mass-storage, creates /dev/sdc, and I can mount it as vfat
and put songs on it.  That's all fine.

However, I put an expansion micro-SD card into it.  The player sees it
fine.  When I plug the player into my Mac, it puts two devices on the
desktop.  When I plug it into my Linux box, /var/log/messages only lists
/dev/sdc (not /dev/sdc and /dev/sdd as I expected) being created.

I can plug another USB device in and /dev/sdd is created, so there's
nothing keeping the system from creating /dev/sdd.  I have it's USB
mode set to MSC.

What else could be keeping it from seeing the expansion card?

Probably kernel config - check to make sure you enabled Probe all LUNs on
each SCSI device - under Device Drivers-SCSI device support

Make sure you have CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y in your kernel config.

Ah, I checked and I didn't have that option set.  I'll change it,
rebuild, and reboot.

Thanks to all who answered!
