Comment 137 for bug 238208

I am running 64 bit Ubuntu 10.10 on a Dell PRecision M6300 with the following SD card reader device:

03:01.2 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C592 Memory Stick Bus Host Adapter (rev 12)
03:01.3 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd xD-Picture Card Controller (rev 12)

I am running the following stock Ubuntu 10.10 kernel:

Linux rhino 2.6.35-22-generic #35-Ubuntu SMP Sat Oct 16 20:45:36 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I found the driver for the Ricoh device here:

http://gitorious.org/ricoh-kernel/ricoh-kernel/trees/master

Brilliant! Many thanks for developing this driver.

After downloading and extracting the tarball I installed the memstick driver with the following commands:

cd memstick
make
make install
make install load

However, my SD card still does not work. What might I be doing wrong? What else do I need to do to get it to work? Do I need to install anything else such as drivers from the mmc, user or xd directory. If so, please provide instructions.

Many thanks in advance of your reply!
