The solution is in the preceding bug report.

to recap

1 The kernel supplied in feisty has BROKEN tifm modules
2 TIFM modules or the set pci hack ONLY support SD cards NOT ms,sm or xd at this time
3 Unless Ubuntu supply corrected modules the only way to get this working is to follow the instructions in this thread (compile your own).

if you get "end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0,......." then you you are running the buggy modules
if you get "tifm_sd: disagrees about version of symbol tifm_register_driver" you are running a bit of both ;-) (hint ...make clean, and rmmod)

Auto mounting is fixed its just the driver faulty, Fix the driver and your set.

As a plus the .8 driver is a lot less buggy than the .6 in edgy (dont reboot the machine with the sd card in or you have the multiple sd cards on the desktop )
