Hi list, I can't get this usb reader to work at all with a smartmedia card (i don't have a compact flash card to test) although searching on the web suggests that the sddr-75 is a standard USB Mass Storage device and there are reports that it works in linux.
I've followed the suggestions here: http://vic.dyndns.org/linux-UsbMassStorage/ http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/showdev.php?id=1227 I'm using the debian supplied kernel-image 2.4.21-3-k7 with sid as well as a self-complied 2.4.21 and also tried versions of 2.4.20 & 2.4.19. To load the usb modules, in a boot-up script, I have: modprobe usbcore modprobe usb-uhci modprobe usb-storage mount -t usbdevfs none /proc/bus/usb Instead of doing this, I've also tried using hotplug and usbmgr as well as loading the modules in /etc/modules. `mount -t vfat /dev/sd[a,b] /mnt/flash/` gives: mount: /dev/sd[a,b] is not a valid block device I think the problem may be that sg is not mapping the reader slots to /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. When I do `sg_map`, I get: (scd0 is a cdrw) /dev/sg0 /dev/scd0 /dev/sg1 /dev/sg2 Does anyone know how to get /dev/sg2 mapped to /dev/sdb? I bought the reader because I was having similar problems with my camera. It's an Olympus D-510. I didn't use it for a while but I had it working fine in linux last year with an earlier 2.4 kernel. I'd really appreciate any help as this has been driving me nuts for a few days. :) I've included more info below in case it's useful.
