How hard is it to get hacking on a driver for this chipset? As was the case for the Texas Instruments devices: "TI refused to publish a complete datasheet for any of the FlashMedia devices rendering them useless anywhere except M$ Windows"
Still, the tifmxx driver was and is being developed. So, can this possibly be done for the Ricoh chipset? Maybe it's even possible to re-use code from the tifmxx driver (MS specifications, code structure etc)? Project page TI driver: http://developer.berlios.de/projects/tifmxx Maybe someone can create a new project in launchpad for this driver, set up the basic driver files etc and at least get a dummy driver up that detects that a MS or xD card has been inserted into the bay - so that we at least can inform the uninformed user that "Sorry, but there are currently no available drivers for MemoryStick or xD cards for your built-in card reader" What about that? -- Need MemoryStick driver Ricoh R5C822 chipset https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/238208 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
