Thomas Sibley, as per http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/default.page? an update is available for your BIOS (1.38). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change anything?
If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Thank you for your understanding. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/965280 Title: Thinkpad T420s - Ricoh e823 not working with SDHC cards (11.10 and 12.04) Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When inserting an SDHC card into the Ricoh e823 card reader on my Thinkpad T420s, the card is not mounted and the block device is never created. There is a similar bug #773524, but the workaround provided there and the updated kernel version haven't solved my problem. I would love to help get this solved and am willing and able to test various solutions. In dmesg, I see "mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising SD card" after inserting the card. tom@whaam ~ $ sudo lspci -v -d 1180:e823 05:00.0 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd Device e823 (rev 07) Subsystem: Lenovo Device 21d2 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 10 [virtual] Memory at d0d00000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=256] Capabilities: [50] MSI: Enable- Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit+ Capabilities: [78] Power Management version 3 Capabilities: [80] Express Endpoint, MSI 00 Capabilities: [100] Virtual Channel Capabilities: [800] Advanced Error Reporting Kernel driver in use: sdhci-pci Kernel modules: sdhci-pci For reference, this is what happens when I run the workaround in comment #13 on bug #773524 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/773524/comments/13): Mar 26 00:04:15 whaam kernel: [ 413.265533] sdhci: Secure Digital Host Controller Interface driver Mar 26 00:04:15 whaam kernel: [ 413.265535] sdhci: Copyright(c) Pierre Ossman Mar 26 00:04:15 whaam kernel: [ 413.271153] sdhci-pci 0000:05:00.0: SDHCI controller found [1180:e823] (rev 4) Mar 26 00:04:15 whaam kernel: [ 413.271232] sdhci-pci 0000:05:00.0: found PCI INT A -> IRQ 10 Mar 26 00:04:15 whaam kernel: [ 413.271241] sdhci-pci 0000:05:00.0: sharing IRQ 10 with 0000:00:16.3 Mar 26 00:04:15 whaam kernel: [ 413.271256] sdhci-pci 0000:05:00.0: sharing IRQ 10 with 0000:00:1c.3 Mar 26 00:04:15 whaam kernel: [ 413.271757] sdhci-pci 0000:05:00.0: setting latency timer to 64 Mar 26 00:04:15 whaam kernel: [ 413.271793] mmc0: no vmmc regulator found Mar 26 00:04:15 whaam kernel: [ 413.271832] Registered led device: mmc0:: Mar 26 00:04:15 whaam kernel: [ 413.272094] mmc0: SDHCI controller on PCI [0000:05:00.0] using DMA Mar 26 00:05:08 whaam kernel: [ 465.984670] mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising SD card Mar 26 00:05:08 whaam kernel: [ 466.439245] mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising SD card Mar 26 00:05:09 whaam kernel: [ 466.614932] mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising SD card Mar 26 00:05:09 whaam kernel: [ 466.777559] mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising SD card Mar 26 00:05:09 whaam kernel: [ 466.946194] mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising SD card Mar 26 00:05:09 whaam kernel: [ 467.115316] mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising SD card Mar 26 00:05:09 whaam kernel: [ 467.290641] mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising SD card Additional info: tom@whaam ~ $ cat /proc/version_signature Ubuntu 3.0.0-16.29-generic 3.0.20 --- AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24.
