Yes, I have seen it, in GNOME and in KDE, a few times. I predominantly use KDE, and it seems to be working in KDE now. As in I just put an SD card into the reader, opened it in dolphin, and used the dolphin 'safely remove' option; pulled the SD card from the reader, waited a few seconds (10 or so; log tells me it was 9), plugged the card back in, and it came right up. A client of mine who is still at Fedora 13 and is a GNOME user saw this issue, and found this was the way to get it working on his system: "I've tried something different and after 4 times, it's worked every time. What I'm doing now to remove a flash card from the reader, instead of usual - logical "safe to remove" option, try using the "eject" option. Thus far, it seems to be working." Can you try that and see what happens? (assuming you have an eject option; I'm not a GNOME user, and don't have the full GNOME installed on this box) I've also found that at least with KDE it seems to always be best to wait until you're logged in and the system has become somewhat quiescent before hotplugging any removable storage; at least my USB 3 external wasn't recognized at all when I booted with it plugged in, and the system refused to see it even after unplugging and replugging, but restarting with it not plugged in, then plugging it in after logging in worked ok. Made me a little nervous at first! (note for those who didn't see or have forgotten my first message on this: no, USB 3 does not work 'out of the box' with Fedora 14, you do have to do something special, and that something special is documented on the fedoraproject.org website, so if you need the info, go find it there or in the archives of this list.) (Also note that, yes, I do know my kernel is a rev old; I have installed the updates since, but since i use the nvidia driver, and there was a little bit of delay in delivery of the kmod-nvidia for the update, I set this particular kernel to boot in grub.conf; yes, I do need to set that back now that the updated kmod-nvidia is out there.....)
