I have just tried running lsusb as root and I get different output:

I do not understand why user robert should be denied information
available to root because robert is a member of plugdev and as such has
the same rw access to the device that root has:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/media$ ls -l /dev/sdd /dev/sde
brw-rw---- 1 root plugdev 8, 48 2007-12-23 19:23 /dev/sdd
brw-rw---- 1 root plugdev 8, 64 2007-12-23 19:23 /dev/sde

The other member of plugdev is haldaemon, if that makes any difference.

Another thing:

I have just removed and reinserted the card and the card reader now
shows a red light, indicating an error, where it showed none before. If
things were working properly the reader would show a green light. The SD
card still seems to work OK in my camera (i.e. I can browse the images
stored on it).
