M4800 - sd card (microdia?) not recognized

Yuvi · 2015-09-20 12:55:42

Hi everybody,

First, sorry if my thread was already treated but I didn't find anything directly on this forum or in Google about my problem and my configuration. I tried many thing but nothing works.

So, I have a Dell M4800 under GnomeShell (3.16.3). I think that my internal SD card reader is not recognized. If I insert a SD before or after boot it's the same thing.

lsblk (with a SD card inserted):

Run dmesg before you insert an sdcard and then insert one. Is there any new output?

Nothing new

See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/De … sion_M4800

You should have a PCI-based SDHC but there's none. Check dmesg, there likely was some error during PCI enumeration or sdhci_acpi initialization.

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback. I checked my dmesg: there is no error and I see those lines :

[    0.503963] sdhci: Secure Digital Host Controller Interface driver
[    0.503965] sdhci: Copyright(c) Pierre Ossman

I tried under Ubuntu and it is exactly the same thing. And I test with another M4800 (same configuration but under Ubuntu) and it's worked.

So, I think this a an hardware problem. I will contact Dell asap and test with Windows (but I have to install it ...)

Thanks for your help

Make sure you check the bios, I doubt that you can disable the card reader there but it doesn't hurt to check.

Hi R00KIE,

Yes, I already checked the BIOS and you can't disable it.

Thanks
