Changing from linux to gparted since fdisk in kernel 2.6.82-8+ now recognises the mmcblk device, but gparted still doesn't.
** Summary changed: - [intrepid] mmcblk0 detection is broken - fdisk -l no longer shows it + gparted no longer detects mmcblk ** Description changed: - Intrepid's fdisk command does not recognise the /dev/mmcblk0 device - correctly. + gparted in Intrepid and Jaunty no longer shows mmcblk as a device (ie in + the dropdown list on the right-hand side), so it can't format SD/SDHC + cards. This is a regression from Hardy. - 'fdisk -l /dev/mmcblk0' shows correct details for it, but it doesn't - show up with 'fdisk -l' or even 'sudo fdisk -l'. + Version information for Jaunty: - The result of this is: + ubuntu 9.04 + kernel 2.6.28-9-generic + gparted 0.4.3-0ubuntu1 - (1) gparted can no longer format cards in this device, because it no - longer sees mmcblk0. (parted can see it if you specify /dev/mmcblk0 - manually.) - - (2) hal no longer automounts the device. - - (3) If I try to mount it, nautilus tells me that it cannot automatically - mount internal drives, and so I need to provide an authorization to do - so. - - fdisk -l used to show the device (definitely in Hardy), and it used to - auto-mount correctly without requiring any authorization, so this is a - regression. - - None of the system logs report anything other than detecting the device - when it is inserted: - - Sep 28 10:38:15 galactica kernel: [ 2703.121974] mmc0: new high speed SD card at address b368 - Sep 28 10:38:15 galactica kernel: [ 2703.149186] mmcblk0: mmc0:b368 SDC 1960448KiB - Sep 28 10:38:15 galactica kernel: [ 2703.150592] mmcblk0: p1 - - I guess this might be a bug in util-linux instead of linux since fdisk - is part of util-linux. - - Version information: - - Intrepid 8.10 kernel 2.6.27-4-generic amd64 - (fdisk) util-linux 2.14-1ubuntu2 - hal 0.5.11-3~ubuntu8 + Additionally, Intrepid's fdisk command (2.6.27 kernel) does not even + recognise the /dev/mmcblk0 device. 'fdisk -l /dev/mmcblk0' shows correct + details for it, but it doesn't show up with 'fdisk -l' or even 'sudo + fdisk -l'. (fdisk was fixed in the 2.6.28-8-generic kernel in Jaunty.) lspci for mmcblk0 device: 03:09.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Ricoh Co Ltd R5C832 IEEE 1394 Controller (rev 05) 03:09.1 SD Host controller: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter (rev 22) 03:09.2 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C843 MMC Host Controller (rev 12) 03:09.3 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C592 Memory Stick Bus Host Adapter (rev 12) 03:09.4 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd xD-Picture Card Controller (rev ff) ** Changed in: gparted (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: linux => gparted -- gparted no longer detects mmcblk https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275345 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
