Memory Stick worked fine on my Vaio VGN-N230N running 7.10.
But after the upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04, the memory stick isn't working anymore.

Snippets from /var/log/syslog

- After the upgrade:

Oct  9 01:45:38 bc03 kernel: [14146.875513] tifm_core: MemoryStick card 
detected in socket 0:0
Oct  9 01:45:38 bc03 kernel: [14146.945840] tifm0 : demand removing card from 
socket 0:0

As you can see, nothing happens when I insert it in its slot.

uname -a
Linux bc03 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Aug 20 22:56:21 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux

Is there something I can do about this problem? I've always used this
card to transfer photos from my camera to the computer. I'm very
disapointed with the quality of this version of Ubuntu. Besides this
bug, there are several other problems, some major ones.
