Callahan, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please just make a comment to this? If reproducible, could you also please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc5 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium => Low ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete ** Summary changed: - 197b:2391 Internal SD card reader is not working on Dell XPS L501X + Internal SD card reader is not working on Dell XPS L501X -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/969583 Title: Internal SD card reader is not working on Dell XPS L501X Status in The Linux Kernel: Confirmed Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Inserting a sd card into the internal card reader is not recognized by the system. Same problem occurs with older ubuntu versions (driver missing?) WORKAROUND: Put the following in rescan.c: #include <stdio.h> main(){ FILE *outfile; outfile=fopen("/sys/bus/pci/rescan","w"); if (outfile != NULL){ fprintf(outfile,"1\n"); fclose(outfile); } else printf("permission denied\n"); } then compile with: gcc rescan.c -o rescan sudo cp rescan /usr/local/bin sudo chown root /usr/local/bin/rescan sudo chmod u+s /usr/local/bin/rescan then in system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts, create a custom keybinding (Add). The command should point to /usr/local/bin/rescan .
