Thank you for taking the time to report this bug. There are a couple more pieces of information which may be useful here.
On one of the computers which exhibits this problem, could you try booting with an older LiveCD, or a different distro's LiveCD, and see if you can still reproduce this? Also, is it possible that the affected card readers might be based on the same chip? The results of 'lsusb' on the affected machines might be helpful. It almost seems as though the write protect sense switch inside the readers have gone bad, but it'd be pretty weird for two readers to have the same problem all the sudden. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- SD card mounts as read-only https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/523533 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
