Comment 25 for bug 202490

Now, I'm very new to this, but I've just done the 8.10 upgrade, and my lspci | grep ricoh output is identical to those listed above. Dell Vostro 1700.
Everything I've seen on the web in the last hour leads me to believe that it's impossible to read xd cards with a built in reader using gnu/linux.
(not very) Interestingly, I just put ubuntu on this machine this morning dual boot, and when I fired up xp pro, it told me 'Found new hardware: xd picture card reader'. It had always worked flawlessly before in xp on this box. I guess I'm just going to have to stick with windows, because microsoft, quite clearly, make far superior operating systems than this geek oriented linux nonsense.
