Yes, both with self-compiled and Debian stock kernels, but I have not tried it with nvidia's installer. I've always installed the nvidia-kernel-source package and followed the instructions in /usr/share/doc/README.Debian. > > 2) I just got a usb card reader.

Then plug in the card reader and check to see how the device is reported in /var/log/messages. If the card reader is plugged in when you boot, discover should list the hardware and associated device in thed boot post and log the information in syslog and messages. If relevent modules are loaded, devfs or udev should create the device in /dev. KDE device icons at least give you popup menu to mount and unmount the dedia devices. -- Jerome
