I am running Debian Sid, and have a USB multicard reader installed in my PC. I know the card reader is seen, lsusb lists it
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 058f:6362 Alcor Micro Corp. Hi-Speed 21-in-1 Flash Card Reader/Writer (Internal/External) And /dev is populated with /dev/sdc,/dev/sdd, /dev/sde and /dev/sdf which appear to be the four different card slots on this unit. (I presume it is acting as a hub, because when I plug a usb thumb stick on the usb port on it, it adds another device /dev/sdg) I know the SD card I have is formated with vfat, since I can see it on a Sheeva plug computer that I have. However, I cannot detect it when installed in the card reader on my Debian Sid PC. When I plug the SD card in, the reader shows an orange light, showing its detected something, but (for instance) running fdisk -l does not show it, and I cannot see any devices appearing in /dev (such as /dev/sd[cdef]1) to indicated the card is seen. Am I missing something, like a modprobe that is needed? or is it likely that the hardware doesn't work (I have never used it before, despite being several years old). -- Alan Chandler http://www.chandlerfamily.org.uk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
