Testing with Ubuntu 8.10 and no ehci_hcd: no oops but the device is not accessible.
With no ehci_hcd loaded, this is what I get when I insert the card reader: [ 830.760185] usb 4-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 [ 830.934123] usb 4-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 830.949049] scsi6 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices [ 830.952785] usb-storage: device found at 2 [ 830.952797] usb-storage: waiting for device to settle before scanning [ 835.954520] usb-storage: device scan complete [ 836.637436] scsi 6:0:0:0: Direct-Access Generic 6000 PQ: 0 ANSI: 0 CCS [ 836.648266] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] 1987584 512-byte hardware sectors (1018 MB) [ 836.651260] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off [ 836.651271] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 4b 00 00 08 [ 836.651277] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 836.675516] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] 1987584 512-byte hardware sectors (1018 MB) [ 836.679344] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off [ 836.679356] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Mode Sense: 4b 00 00 08 [ 836.679362] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through [ 836.679374] sdb:<3>end_request: I/O error, dev sdb, sector 0 [ 836.814378] __ratelimit: 5 callbacks suppressed [ 836.814386] Buffer I/O error on device sdb, logical block 0 and this is what happens during lsusb: [ 866.924193] usb 4-2: reset full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 [ 882.036225] usb 4-2: device descriptor read/64, error -110 [ 897.252189] usb 4-2: device descriptor read/64, error -110 [ 897.468182] usb 4-2: reset full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 [ 912.580205] usb 4-2: device descriptor read/64, error -110 [ 927.852188] usb 4-2: device descriptor read/64, error -110 [ 928.124184] usb 4-2: reset full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 [ 938.532183] usb 4-2: device not accepting address 2, error -110 [ 938.644177] usb 4-2: reset full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 [ 949.052175] usb 4-2: device not accepting address 2, error -110 [ 949.052300] usb 4-2: USB disconnect, address 2 [ 949.052333] sd 6:0:0:0: Device offlined - not ready after error recovery [ 949.052350] sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Result: hostbyte=DID_ABORT driverbyte=DRIVER_OK,SUGGEST_OK [ 949.052359] end_request: I/O error, dev sdb, sector 0 [ 949.052369] Buffer I/O error on device sdb, logical block 0 [ 949.052452] sd 6:0:0:0: rejecting I/O to offline device [ 949.052460] Buffer I/O error on device sdb, logical block 0 [ 949.052488] sd 6:0:0:0: rejecting I/O to offline device [ 949.052495] Buffer I/O error on device sdb, logical block 0 [ 949.052511] sd 6:0:0:0: rejecting I/O to offline device [ 949.052517] Buffer I/O error on device sdb, logical block 0 [ 949.052526] ldm_validate_partition_table(): Disk read failed.
