Re: SD Card Reader

could be one of the ricoh's that operate through the PCMCIA port. I've got one in my laptop, acer travelmate 370.

There's an experimental driver for these here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/sdricohcs/
edit: Just gave it a shot and it worked 'well'. Not flawlessly, but pretty darn well for a first release.

Otherwise, take a look on: http://mmc.drzeus.cx/wiki/Welcome

what's the laptop?

Re: SD Card Reader

It's HP NX 9105. It's not Ricoh.. It's Texas Instruments. By the way I can only make it work via these commands:

sudo setpci -s 01:04.0 4c.b=0x02
sudo setpci -s 01:04.1 4c.b=0x02
sudo setpci -s 01:04.2 4c.b=0x02
