Hm... just note to my self and other users: - i still hardly working in my "free" time to make au6621 to work with mainline kernel mmc framework. It is still not working, even if i reproduce all register access, but not in the same order as original driver. It is just impossible to do it same way. The au6601 should still work. - for now, if I recalculate time I spend on this driver to € which I normally get for this kind of work, I would get at least 10 of really expensive laptops. So I think it is not the way, some thing should be done. - I feels like I send wrong signal to Vendors and Users. Users think, there are always, some one who will do it. Vendors understand only language of money. If users still pay money to vendors for HW without drivers and expect, some one will make it for free, then it is really wrong. - I need to admit, I would never be able to make upstream version of driver perfectly work. Vendors working on SD/MMC protocol have tools and people to make sure, it will work at least on 50% of all devices and pass certification. I would be able to make it work on 3-10 SD cards in my home collection and be really happy with it. - If person who gave me au6621 HW will accept it, i would spend one more month on it. And if there are no acceptable results, I will stop to work on this driver.

USB readers work without problem. Nothing happens when pluggin SD/mSD/SDHC/mSDHC cards in the reader (might as well use a piece of wood). Nothing is listed in lsusb -v that could be the reader. Nohting is listed in lspci -k -vv -nnn. Nothing in acpi_listen. Nothing in kern.log etc. According to (select "Windows 8" then "Card Reader") : http://support.asus.com/download.aspx?SLanguage=en&p=3&s=597&m=UX302LG&os=&hashedid=GEZaY8oaj8oSlQ3U Reader vendor is : Alcor Multi-Card Reader Driver http://www.pcidatabase.com/vendor_details.php?id=1672 There is only one device that is "Unassigned class" 1aea:6601 but searching this online only pops up my other bug reports (sigh) and vendor is unassigned on pcidatabase.com. But...Downloading the 14M Win driver for the reader, vendor id 1aea and device id 6601 is present at multiple instances : [DeviceList.NTamd64] ; For XP and later %AMPCIECR% = DriverInstall_6601, PCI\VEN_1aea&DEV_6601 Also there is mention of _Gen instance in the .inf, might point to a "Generic" alternative ? [DeviceList_Gen.NTamd64] ; For XP and later %AMPCIECR_GEN% = DriverInstall_Gen, PCI\VEN_105b&DEV_0ef6 This does point to something totally different online 105b:0ef6 points to some Realtek HD Audio device.
