I am using SD cards and I actually do not own any xD cards. Sorry for the confusion.
I am using the following kernel with which the SD cards sometimes works and sometimes doesn't work:
2.6.37-999-generic #201011091338 SMP Tue Nov 9 13:42:35 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
The SD cards appear to work much better and much more often with the 2.6.37-999 kernels than with the 2.6.35-22 kernel. With the 2.6.37-999 kernels, it usually will work properly for a couple of mounts following a reboot but it then will quit working altogether after multiple mounts until you reboot again. Whereas it seldom would work at all with the 2.6.35-22 kernel.
I am currently running 10.10 and the problem appears to have begun with 10.10 since the SD card reader worked without issues in 8.04 as well as 10.04.

I hope that this helps.
