SD Card on Ricoh Reader Not Recognized
I upgraded to linux-4.2.5-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz last night, and all seemed well until I went to plug in my SD card today. Literally, nothing happened. Normally, it would pop up an SD Card icon on the MATE desktop and a file folder. However, today, it did literally nothing. Opening a file manager did not even show the device.
Booting into Windows and inserting the card popped up a Windows 10 message to click to select what to do when a card is inserted, and Windows Explorer showed the card as drive D: just fine. Booting back into Arch again did nothing when inserted.
I backed out to linux-4.2.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz and linux-headers-4.2.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz, rebooted, and it once again worked.
Output of lsusb shows the reader is "Bus 001 Device 005: ID 0bda:0129 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTS5129 Card Reader Controller".
Is anyone else having this type of issue? Can I do a modprobe on something to get the new kernel to work?

I saw that post, and I'm honestly not sure. Their "fix" was to buy a new card, but this is almost a brand new card. In any event, I cannot see where they tried backing out the kernel, which I did and got it working again.

Re: SD Card on Ricoh Reader Not Recognized
I don't know what to say, the Ricoh controllers seem to have caused a little problems in the past (see for example https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/16751 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … ug/1264108). Someone, as workaround, suggested to remove and reload the sdhci kernel module (along with its dependencies), so you may want to try it. However I think that the only way to get a permanent fix is to report the issue upstream.
