Just tried the 11.04 Kernel: 2.6.38-020638rc8-generic #201103081151 SMP Tue Mar 8 11:57:03 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux - still no recognition of an SD card.

There seems to be a working driver whose author (Maxim Levitsky) is trying to get it included in 2.6.39. If that happens, it still won't be of much use to Natty users unless they install a custom kernel. You could always patch the current kernel yourself, but that has disadvantages as well (i.e. no security updates without repatching, etc., binary drivers, etc...).
