I wasn't trying to get peoples backs up, Just trying to explain that kernel 2.6.20 doesn't work at default with some TIFM hardware.
This is a kernel/TIFM issue not feisty, Any packaged distro running this kernel without patches will have this problem. The sdhci module does work but to use this you have to switch the hardware over to SD mode. The feisty bug in the pci MMC readers (of which TIFM is one) were not seen as host devices and hence hal would not mount has been fixed. Pau Marc Muñoz Torres my SD card works fine in Linux, I am capable of fixing most/any issues with any Debian based distro and don't need to try and help anybody else. As far as windows XP goes maybe you should delete your Linux partition and run the OS of you choice that your obviously so happy with, it is of no concern to me. Carlos if you dont want to re-compile the tifm modules heres how to switch over to SD mode from a command run lspci you will get a list of pci devices, look for the Mass storage controller texas instruments and note the number to the left 02:06.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCIxx21/x515 Cardbus Controller 02:06.1 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCIxx21/x515 Cardbus Controller 02:06.2 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller 02:06.3 Mass storage controller: Texas Instruments PCIxx21 Integrated FlashMedia Controller Issue the following command substituting your pci id where mine is setpci -s 02:06.3 4c.b=0x02 now try inserting you sd card... this needs to be done every reboot as its none persistant ... Note the is some confusing information out there about this in a nut shell There are 2 drivers capable of driving this module SDHCI and TIFM_sd.TIFM_7xx1,TIFM_core the tifm module are bust in the 2.6.20 kernel series to use sdhci you have to switch the hardware mode over using setpci NOTE as far as I can tell both drivers only support SD cards 100% sure this is true for the tifm driver but cant find anything definitive about the sdhci driver ..can't test myself as only have sd cards. -- tifm: Texas Instruments Card reader not working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/53923 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
