Hi,
I have a Centrino Duo notebook which has an embedded card reader (for memory sticks, SD cards, XD cards, etc.). No card inserted in the reader is detected by Fedora. I was hoping that the new F7 kernel would support it, but the reader is still dead after the upgrade. lspci shows: (...) 05:03.1 Generic system peripheral [0805]: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter (rev 19) 05:03.2 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd Unknown device 0843 (rev 01) 05:03.3 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C592 Memory Stick Bus Host Adapter (rev 0a) 05:03.4 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd xD-Picture Card Controller (rev 05) (...)
Is there anything I can do to get this device working? Or do I have to wait for a kernel that supports it?
Thanks,
Marcelo

That is the exact same device in my laptop and it works great. I have tried 1GB 2GB and 4GB regular SD cards. I have NOT tried 8GB SDHC cards.
What card are you trying?
The driver in question is: mmc, which includes mmc_core and mmc_block. Do the drivers load for you?
Plug in a SD card and:
# lsmod | grep mmc
and
dmesg | tail
You should see something like this from dmesg:
mmcblk0: mmc0:1234 SD04G 4018176KiB mmcblk0: p1
Good luck!

Thanks for your answer. I have tried with 16 MB and 256 MB memory sticks and with a 1 GB XD card, none of which I was able to access. I'll try again when I get home and will check if the module is being loaded.

Please note that linux driver works only with SD and CF cards. Memory stick and XD will not be detected :(

If the driver is loaded then you might find this a help from a previous post. I have copied and paste
This is determined by /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/99-redhat-storage-policy-fixed-drives.fdi. You can either edit it or just move it out of that location and auto mounting would work.
It has been done as a security measure but policy kit in Fedora 8 should make this much more usable. There is a recent discussion in fedora-devel list about this FYI.
