Secondly, did you notice how long it took between being plugged in and being mounted? To have to wait several minutes is not acceptable. All that moving the mouse and keyboard from the usb connection seems to have done is to keep them working when the card reader mounts whereas before, one or other or even both stopped working.
As far as the card reader is concerned, nothing has changed. I still have a device that does not work satisfactorily on one machine but perfectly well on another. To reiterate, the machine on which it does not work as it should is a completely up to date, relatively new install of Ubuntu 9.04 whereas the machine where performance is as it should be, is a completely up to date, upgraded over many versions, Ubuntu 9.04. It does seem that usb may be part of the problem or is it hal but to quote, where is the evidence?
