Due to unexpected turn of events (sometimes it pays to ask a question) I was told that mmc controller that ricoh-mmc disables in fact is almost standard sdhci controller.
Therefore I patched the sdhci kernel driver and now it binds to both sdhci and mmc devices and therefore allows you to use sd,sdhi,mmc and xD cards at same time. The driver modified to compile under 10.4 kernel is attached. To use first unload the ricoh-mmc (if you didn't already) $ sudo modprobe -r ricoh_mmc To make this permanent blacklist it (if you didn't already) to do so: $ echo ricoh_mmc | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist_ricoh_mmc.conf Now compile & install: $ make $ sudo make install Unload current driver: $ modprobe -r sdhci_pci $ modprobe -r sdhci assure that new driver is seen to do so ensure that you see the 'extra': $ modinfo sdhci-pci | grep filename filename: /lib/modules/2.6.32-18-generic/extra/sdhci-pci.ko Now load patched driver: (on next boot it will be loaded automaticly) $ modprobe -r sdhci_pci $ modprobe -r sdhci note that due to bug (you probably seen it) don't try to suspend the system while sd/sdhc/mmc card is in slot This just hands the system I know the cause, but fix is far from trivial. (Its not my fault) ** Attachment added: "mmc-sd-sdhci.tar.gz" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/49613807/mmc-sd-sdhci.tar.gz -- [Feature Request] Provide a driver for Ricoh R5C822 xD card reader https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/202490 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
