I pulled the lot out and still the card reader icon did not appear neither did a window open nor a message appear. There was a little red light on the card reader which flashed for a while, stopped and then started again. > > Another thing to do is see what messages appear in System -> > Administration -> Log File Viewer, at the point when you plug it in. > This may indicate what the problem is. I had a look at the sys log but it might just as well have been in Martian or some other esoteric language. I am just an ignorant user not an interpreter of Ubunterese and, as far as I am concerned, a piece of kit works or it doesn't. This particular piece of kit works on one computer but not on another, both are running the same operating system and have a very similar specification. Now, will someone please hold my hand and show me the way to make things happen the way I expect them to.
