sorry i got abit a head of myself above post with compiling the drivers afterwards i realized that the 2.6.17-10-generic kernel already had the driver.
so i removed the drivers that i compiled and installed and ran sudo /sbin/depmod -ae All I had to do from the start was from terminal type sudo modprobe tifm_7xx1 sudo modprobe tifm_core sudo modprobe tifm_sd and then add to /etc/modules file tifm_7xx1 tifm_core tifm_sd All is working fine with the drivers that are in the 2.6.17-10-generic kernel -- 5 in 1 card reader on Acer Aspire 5601AWLMi Laptop https://launchpad.net/bugs/63386 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
