I had no trouble getting it to work back in December when I installed my
first Gentoo system (gentoo-sources 2.4.20 r1) nor did I have dificulty
getting it running on this box several months ago. It worked fine a few
days ago but today I can't mount the card reader. The camera itself,
however mounts fine.
I was going to end this here but....
So, I gave up trying to mount the smart media reader and decided to
pull the pictures directly off the camera So I do:
# fdisk -l /dev/sd and tab a couple of times. There's the camera at
/dev/sda1. I moved my pictures to the webserver, umount the camera and
unplug it and plug in the card reader again. The damn thing works now!
I see nothing in dmesg that would explain why, nor did I energe any
packages, update any config files or reboot This is truly wierd.
Anybody out there have an idea as to what happened?
