cannot mount Compact Flash

I can no more mount my compact flash.

It was working nicely and since the last "pacman -Syu", it does not work.

Any help is welcome.

Here after the errors out of "dmesg" I received as soon as the USB connection is powered on.

Re: cannot mount Compact Flash

I can mount an USB stick of 4GB.  Thus I don't think this is an hardware problem of my USB connector.

On the other hand, I can mount my Compact Flash on an another PC installed with Archlinux (last synch made begining of May).
Thus I would conclude that my device's hardware and my compac flash are not broken.

Does one of the kernel module as been changed wince the last 2 months ?
Does this is linked to the udev ?

How can I solve this ?

Thanks.

Re: cannot mount Compact Flash

What no answers means ?

1) this is very stupid problem. I must change xyz parameter.

2) nobody knows. And I must create a defect in the bug lists.

Thanks

Re: cannot mount Compact Flash

I don't know what's wrong, but the error from dmesg suggest to me that it's having problem communcating with the device. Perhaps it could be related to when the kernel was updated and something changed?

Re: cannot mount Compact Flash

Looks like it could be related to the camera mounting problem a few of us are having: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=34678

It appears that it's a udev issue, and I know there is already a bug report on it.
