Solved? After reading elsewhere about doing a 'modprobe sdhci' before using the card-reader, I tried it, with a card already inserted into the card- reader:
sudo modprobe sdhci (no output, meaning it was successful) After having done this, the card reader would work each and every time (also across reboots, just as in Windows!) without having to load the sdhci module again using modprobe ... seems like this needs to be done once to load this module, then the system will remember it ... Maybe this step is missing from the install/setup stage? -- Feisty - Dell SD Card Reader Now Broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105773 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
