Hi Mark, What do you get if you run the command dmesg after you have plugged in the card?

Hi Mark, What do you get if you run the command dmesg after you have plugged in the card? Thanks for the hint, Sean! dmesg showed the reader being detected as /dev/sdc, and inserting a card then mounting /dev/sdc1 gives me access to the card. It must just be KDE that's not autodetecting it. In case anyone's interested, you can also mount /dev/sr1 to gain access to the storage containing the dongle's drivers and setup tools.
