Keith,

I think that your card will be available as a /dev/sda# or some other SCSI 
device.  Which sort of makes sense when reading the logs you posted earlier, 
you can see the device doing a scan for SCSI LUNS:

#usb-storage: *** thread awakened.
#usb-storage: Bad target number (7/0)
#usb-storage: *** thread sleeping.
#WARNING: USB Mass Storage data integrity not assured
#USB Mass Storage device found at 3
#usb.c: usb-storage driver claimed interface d294f940
#usb.c: kusbd: /sbin/hotplug add 3

Not too sure what '/sbin/hotplug' is but that script or program has found 
something.  Hopefully narrowing it down to /dev/sdX# helps.

Just try:
'mount -t msdos /dev/sdX# /mnt/path_to_cardreader' on your ununsed SCSI 
devices, I think you'll find it in one of them.  I remember going through this 
exercise with a friend...but not all the deatails.

HTH.
