This card reader started working again of its own accord. I tested with 3.2.0-23.36 kernel from Precise, as well as 3.4.0 from Quantal and an upstream 3.5-rc1 kernel. All three work fine, with three different SD cards (two SDHC and one plain SD). I was unable to reproduce the bug as originally reported.
Other than reinstalling the system several times, the only change was that I messed with some settings in the BIOS relating to USB booting. I'm thinking that may have frobbed something into place and things now work well. Anyway, thanks for looking at this bug, which I'll now mark Invalid, and apologies for the time spent working on it. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** Tags removed: blocks-hwcert -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/978964 Title: [Lenovo Thinkpad Edge 14] SD card reader non-functional To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/978964/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
