Re: How mount sd card (Ricoh controller)

On both my desktop and laptop, SD cards pop up as /dev/sd*. Check the end of the dmesg command's output to see what the device is getting assigned.

Hi humanzoo

in sd* only show my hard disk:

$ls /dev/sd*
/dev/sda  /dev/sda1  /dev/sda2  /dev/sda3  /dev/sda4  /dev/sda5  /dev/sda6  /dev/sda7

in dmesg show:

$ dmesg |grep sdhci
sdhci: Secure Digital Host Controller Interface driver

sdhci-pci 0000:05:05.1: SDHCI controller found [1180:0822] (rev 19)

Re: How mount sd card (Ricoh controller)

This should show you where your sdcard is:

# fdisk -l

On mine, this command will list a bunch of /dev/sda1,2,3 etc, which are my hard disk partitions, and one /dev/sdb1, which is my sdcard.

To mount (in my case, my sdcard that appears as /dev/sdb1),

$ pmount /dev/sdb1 sdcard

pmount is in the extra and you may need to install it with

# pacman -S pmount

The pmount command above will mount your sdcard under /media/sdcard. You can change "sdcard" with anything you want. If there are files in that sdcard that you want to execute (like a script), do

$ pmount -e /dev/sdb1 sdcard

Re: How mount sd card (Ricoh controller)

When you run a dmesg right after plugging the card, do you see a device created ? nothing in logs ?

Re: How mount sd card (Ricoh controller)

You could try contacting the people that posted in http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=47011. Same problem as yours as far as I can tell, unfortunately no clear solution. However, they seemed to have a good idea about what is going on.

Re: How mount sd card (Ricoh controller)

Is your SD slot detected?
Run "lspci". In the result look for "SD Host controller".

Try "sudo modprobe sdhci-pci"

Re: How mount sd card (Ricoh controller)

I have Ricoh R5C822 sdcard controller:

lspci | grep MMC
05:05.1 SD Host controller: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter (rev 19)
05:05.2 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C843 MMC Host Controller (rev 0a)

I've done everything you said. I search in web an found possible solution (in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … bug/111089 ):

modprobe -r sdhci
 setpci -s `lspci | grep "SD\/SDIO\/MMC\/MS\/MSPro" | awk '{print $1}'` 0xCA=0x57
 setpci -s `lspci | grep "SD\/SDIO\/MMC\/MS\/MSPro" | awk '{print $1}'` 0xCB=0x02
 setpci -s `lspci | grep "SD\/SDIO\/MMC\/MS\/MSPro" | awk '{print $1}'` 0xCA=0x00
 modprobe sdhci

but I have problem with setpci:

$ sudo setpci -s `lspci | grep "SD\/SDIO\/MMC\/MS\/MSPro" | awk '{print $1}'` 0xCA=0x57
setpci: Missing width.
Try `setpci --help' for more information.

try again:

$ lspci | grep "SD\/SDIO\/MMC\/MS\/MSPro" | awk '{print $1}'
05:05.1
$ sudo setpci -s 05:05.1 0xCA=0x57
setpci: Missing width.
Try `setpci --help' for more information.
$ sudo setpci -s '05:05.1' 0xCA=0x57
setpci: Missing width.
Try `setpci --help' for more information.

I don't understand is wrong.... please help

thanks

Re: How mount sd card (Ricoh controller)

There is a bug report for that: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/16751. It isn't very helpful, though.

Re: How mount sd card (Ricoh controller)

Sorry to revive an old thread, but is there any firmware for the controller, which could be broken in the new kernel? Just covering all possibilities...
