Built-in pcmcia card reader - mount problems

Hi,

I have this new laptop since two weeks or something like that.

Most of the stuff works great.
Anyway... it has this built-in cardreader which is one of these:

02:04.0 CardBus bridge: Ricoh Co Ltd|RL5c476 II (yenta_socket)
02:04.1 CardBus bridge: Ricoh Co Ltd|RL5c476 II (yenta_socket)

When i take the card out of my phone dmesg tells me this:

pccard: PCMCIA card inserted into slot 0
pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.0

So far so good
But now I would like to know how I can mount this card..
I haven't been able to find a module suitable for this yet

Re: Built-in pcmcia card reader - mount problems

Blaasvis told me to load the modules from /lib/modules/2.6.16-beyond/kernel/drivers/mmc

dmesg tells me the following:

wbsd: Winbond W83L51xD SD/MMC card interface driver, 1.5
wbsd: Copyright(c) Pierre Ossman

however, i don't see any new devices under /dev

Re: Built-in pcmcia card reader - mount problems

I have the same problem, I tried what FrankTM said, but I didn't work. I have an Aopen 1557 laptop. I have no idea which kind of card reader it is, except it reader MD/MS/MMC. I've looked everwhere, but I'm unable to figure out the brand, although, perhaps Ricoh (at least that's what the pcmcia bridge is).

Inserting a card:

pccard: PCMCIA card inserted into slot 0
pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.0

No new devices are added to /dev.

Load the SDHCI and wbsd module doesn't detect my card reader either:

sdhci: Unknown parameter `wbsd'
sdhci: Secure Digital Host Controller Interface driver, 0.11
sdhci: Copyright(c) Pierre Ossman
wbsd: Winbond W83L51xD SD/MMC card interface driver, 1.5
wbsd: Copyright(c) Pierre Ossman

Obviously the pcmcia module seems to know there is "something" connected to it..
sudo pccardctl status:

Socket 0:
  3.3V 16-bit PC Card
  Subdevice 0 (function 0) [unbound]
Socket 1:
  no card

sudo pccardctl info:

PRODID_1="RICOH"
PRODID_2="Bay1Controller"
PRODID_3=""
PRODID_4=""
MANFID=0000,0000
FUNCID=254
PRODID_1=""
PRODID_2=""
PRODID_3=""
PRODID_4=""
MANFID=0000,0000
FUNCID=255

I ran udevmonitor when I inserted and removed the card:

UEVENT[1154791251.622179] remove@/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:02:09.0/0.0

Does anybody have an idea how to make this work?
