I have Texas Instruments PCIxx21 Integrated FlashMedia Controller on my
ACER Aspire 1692WLMi laptop not working with a Gutsy fresh install.

The tested kernel is: 
$ uname -a
Linux roadrunner 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 23:05:12 GMT 2007 i686 
GNU/Linux

The Controller is reported by lspci -vv as:
06:01.3 Mass storage controller: Texas Instruments PCIxx21 Integrated

When I insert an MMS card into the slot I get the following messages from dmesg:
Nov  1 18:52:08 roadrunner kernel: [ 1357.024000] tifm_core: MemoryStick card 
detected in socket 0:2
Nov  1 18:52:08 roadrunner kernel: [ 1357.032000] tifm_ms: Unknown symbol 
tifm_has_ms_pif

And nothing happens. The card is not even shown with sudo fdisk -l .

udevmon gives when I insert thw card:
UDEV  [1193936019.015727] add      
/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:06:01.3/tifm_ms0:2 (tifm)

And when I remove it I have
[ 1487.488000] tifm0 : demand removing card from socket 0:2
from dmesg, and
UDEV  [1193936059.381048] remove   
/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:06:01.3/tifm_ms0:2 (tifm)
from udevmon .

I think the whole issue is because tifm_ms module fails to load with the error 
message: tifm_ms: Unknown symbol tifm_has_ms_pif . I take this same error when 
I try to manually modprobe tifm_ms:
$ sudo modprobe tifm_ms
FATAL: Error inserting tifm_ms 
(/lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/misc/tifm/tifm_ms.ko): Unknown symbol in 
module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

Please let me know if this is should be considered as a separate bug and
if you need me to provide any more info from the affected system.
