Finally, my Ricoh R5C822 works at all in Ubuntu 10.10, but first i had
to do some few things.
1.- open synaptic and mark for install
linux-headers-2.6.37-5
linux-headers-2.6.37-5-generic
linux-image-2.6.37-5-generic
2.- then restart : sudo restart -n
3.- goto software origins and enable backports
4.- then: sudo apt-get update
5.- edit the modules file : sudo gedit /etc/modules and add the sd module
tifm_sd to load on start
and make sure you have it: sudo modprobe tifm_sd
sudo modprobe tifm_core
sudo modprobe tifm_7xx1
6.- add some modules for dirs 03:01.x doing sudo modprobe raw1394 and
sudo modprobe dv1394
7.-restart again, enter bios, and disable legacy floppy by selecting disable or
in some bios just deactivate the boot search in a
floppy drive from the boot secuence (generally with space bar on floppy option
in boot secuence, the number on the left side disappears)
8.- just in case sudo modprobe -r floppy
9.-install git doing sudo apt-get git and follow the above instructions
10.- reboot for las time and card reader should work
Important:
Do not try to pull setpci command for kernels 2.6.22 or above
And if you are using virtualbox (ose or branded) 3.2.8 or later you will need
to deactivate the floppy support
I really dont know why the cause of this problem, but just for you to
know, the ricoh card reader always works for me since 8.04 until 10.04,
it just now in 10.10 i have the problem, but reading some forums it
seems to be an old item since jaunty.
I probe SD and MMC, i dont use MS, so i dont know if MS support is present.
hope this info could help
