The Realtek driver installation fixed the problem only temporarily. Can no longer write to SD cards.

Status in “jockey” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: After getting a new laptop, Acer V3-551, for a long time I could not get the inbuilt Realtek PCIE RTS5209 to mount in read and write mode. It would always mount it in read only mode. After trying out many possible solutions, I just compiled the driver from the Realtek website ( http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=15&PFid=25&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false ) and everything now works perfectly. So to add extra out of the box support, I'd like to request jockey to check for this device and install an appropriate proprietary driver deb package by default or list it as an option. Just like with proprietary graphics, wireless etc. drivers.
