Public bug reported: As per Bug #969583, but with a Dell XPS 17 L502X
If I start up the computer with no SD card in the reader, it will not recognise SD cards inserted. If you start up the computer with an SD card inserted, all is good. Alternatively, the following rescan will find the SD card. $ sudo su -l # echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/rescan ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: linux-image-3.2.0-24-generic 3.2.0-24.37 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-24.37-generic 3.2.14 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-24-generic x86_64 AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
