Hello,

I recently purchased a cheapo card reader 
(http://store.yahoo.com/meritline/rid5in1usbca.html) which I have thus far 
been unable to get working in Linux.  Everything looks fine except for 
/proc/scsi/scsi, which shows

        Attached devices: none

The CD-ROM that was bundled with the reader has a Linux directory that
includes standard instructions for setting up a USB mass storage device.
The reader works fine in Windows XP and Mac OS X, so I at least know that
it's functional.  Also, my NexII MP3 player works with Linux.

I'm running kernel 2.4.20-ck7 (Con Kolivas's souped-up kernel), but I have
the same problems with the latest Gentoo kernel on another system.  I must
confess that I haven't tried a vanilla kernel yet, though.

Here's an excerpt of lsmod with relevant entries:

usb-storage            21624   0
scsi_mod               82664   3 [usb-storage]
usb-uhci               22572   0 (unused)
usbcore                58624   1 [usb-storage hid usb-uhci]

'mount' shows
        none on /proc/bus/usb type usbdevfs (rw)

The portion of /proc/bus/usb/devices pertaining to the reader:

E:  Ad=81(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS=   8 Ivl=10ms
T:  Bus=03 Lev=02 Prnt=03 Port=03 Cnt=02 Dev#=  6 Spd=12  MxCh= 0
D:  Ver= 1.10 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=16 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=0aec ProdID=5010 Rev= 1.00
S:  Manufacturer=       Technologies Corp.
S:  Product=       USB Storage Device
S:  SerialNumber=0AEC501000001A006
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=80 MxPwr=100mA
I:  If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=08(stor.) Sub=06 Prot=50 Driver=usb-storage

/proc/scsi/usb-storage-0/0 shows:

   Host scsi0: usb-storage
       Vendor:        Technologies Corp.
      Product:        USB Storage Device
Serial Number: 0AEC501000001A006
     Protocol: Transparent SCSI
    Transport: Bulk
         GUID: 0aec5010aec501000001a006
     Attached: Yes

And finally, /var/log/messages right after I plug the damn thing in:

Jun  7 11:09:22 dhalgren kernel: hub.c: new USB device 00:10.0-2.4, 
assigned address 6
Jun  7 11:09:22 dhalgren kernel: scsi0 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass 
Storage devices

Does anyone have any ideas?  My next plan is to try out the latest 2.5 
kernel; if it's supported there, then I can wait for 2.6.

Thanks!
