A disadvantage of the regular PCI rescan method is that the scan adds this warning to the syslog every time it runs: i915 :00:02.0: BAR 6: [??? 0x flags 0x2] has bogus alignment -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubun

The problem with that script is that the reader doesn't appear in the output of lspci until *after* a rescan with a card inserted. So you could switch that around to rescan every few seconds and then quit after the reader appears in the lspci output, but as is, I don't think that will work. -- Yo

Another option is to use the attached script, which automates the process of detecting the reader, so you don't have to press a hotkey. * copy the attached file scan_sd_reader.sh to /etc/init.d/ and make it executable: sudo cp scan_sd_reader.sh /etc/init.d && sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/scan_sd_rea

I set up a hot-key to call a tiny suid program that triggers the rescan. Works great. Put the following in rescan.c: #include main(){ FILE *outfile; outfile=fopen("/sys/bus/pci/rescan","w"); if (outfile != NULL){ fprintf(outfile,"1\n"); fclose(outfile); } else printf("permissi

Actually, what might be a good workaround would be to set a keybinding to the rescan - so you would insert an sd card, then hit some hot-key to trigger the rescan and mount the card? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. http

@Etienne: rescanning also doesn't actually solve the problem: remove the SD card and rescan and the device disappears again! It's only when rescanning (or booting) with a card inserted and then not rescanning that it stays. I guess the only solution would be to rescan the bus any time the system p

In my experience, doing this at boot time doesn't help. It only finds the controller after an sd card has been inserted. If there is an sd card present at boot time then the rescan is unnecessary as the controller is found anyway. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of

@Fallen: rescanning works for me. Very odd, rescanning again without a card inserted doesn't let the four devices disappear. Maybe it's a hardware bug, like they don't get switched on by BIOS on boot without a medium? Testing 2.6.35-25-generic-pae tomorrow. -- You received this bug notificatio
