** Description changed:
Inserting a sd card into the internal card reader is not recognized by
the system. Same problem occurs with older ubuntu versions (driver
missing?)
- using ubuntu 12.04 beta 2
+ WORKAROUND: Put the following in rescan.c:
+ #include <stdio.h>
+ main(){
+ FILE *outfile;
+ outfile=fopen("/sys/bus/pci/rescan","w");
+ if (outfile != NULL){
+ fprintf(outfile,"1\n");
+ fclose(outfile);
+ }
+ else printf("permission denied\n");
+ }
+
+ then compile with:
+ gcc rescan.c -o rescan
+ sudo cp rescan /usr/local/bin
+ sudo chown root /usr/local/bin/rescan
+ sudo chmod u+s /usr/local/bin/rescan
+
+ then in system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts, create a custom
+ keybinding (Add). The command should point to /usr/local/bin/rescan .
