@Etienne: rescanning also doesn't actually solve the problem: remove the SD card and rescan and the device disappears again! It's only when rescanning (or booting) with a card inserted and then not rescanning that it stays.
I guess the only solution would be to rescan the bus any time the system polls for mounts… (do they still poll? I guess more than once per second would affect performance… I don't know anything about PCI, does polling wake up devices etc? Would it be bad for battery life to poll too often?) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/703180 Title: SD card reader doesn't work on new Dell XPS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/703180/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
