Comment 65 for bug 773524

Seeing something akin to this on a Toshiba Tecra M11, installed 11.10 yesterday. Kernel seems to be up to date:

Linux node428 3.0.0-14-generic-pae #23-Ubuntu SMP Mon Nov 21 22:07:10 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Device seems a bit different though:

01:00.0 SD Host controller: Ricoh Co Ltd MMC/SD Host Controller (rev 01)
01:00.1 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd Memory Stick Host Controller (rev 01)
01:00.2 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd Device e852 (rev 01)

Adding to this, it seems the device supports ejecting the card via software control, and as far as I have seen now, I got the card to remain loaded only once, seeing this in dmesg...

... and now being not even able to correctly insert the card anymore as the mechanism "ejecting" the card seems in some way open so the card won't stay in place...?
