Guest imakeart Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 I have one of those 5-in-1 card readers on my Acer Aspire 3680. I've been reading how only the SD and XD work, but in my case they aren't working. Is there a fix for this? Maybe I need the drivers? The card reader does show up with I do "lspci".

Greg2 Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Please insert an SD-card and post the output of dmesg |tail -n 15 I believe that CF-cards will work also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg2 Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 It's recognizing it, but it's not attaching it. It appears to be a module loading problem? With the card inserted, please post the output of (as root) lsmod |grep -i sd and lsmod |grep -i mmc and lsmod |grep -i tifm Does the output of lspci identify this as a Texas Instruments card reader?
