It appears that this is dead-on.  When I connect via USB to my one Linux computer, the darktable import function recognizes both cards while they're still in the G9. Thanks for the heads-up.

    I guess Windows blocks darktable from accessing the card reader(?).
    If the card reader is shown as a separate drive try to eject this

    and see if darktable then shows the appropriate dialog.
