Corrupted data when copying photos from a Secure Digital media card on a Dell inspiron 9300

[Saivann Carignan]

This bug happens each time I try to copy photos from my camera when I use the built-in Secure Digital (SD) Media Card reader of my dell laptop. It is detected has : R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host in Linux.

When copying photos from the Fat16 SD media card, there could be 3 photos on 200 that are corrupted. I tested to copy the photos from Microsoft Windows to see if it was a hardware problem and concluded that my SD media card reader was OK because this problem doesn't happen in Windows, only in Linux Ubuntu.

When using the diff command to compare photos that has been extracted in Windows and the one that have been extracted on Linux, diff only detect a file difference for the files that are corrupted in Linux.

Thanks or submitting this report.

Could you please test this problem against the newest hardy kernel.

Thanks

I can't reproduce this issue with 2.6.24-10 kernel by copying 105 photos, so I set the status to fixed released for linux. Thanks!

However Hardy introduced a important regression that I describe in bug 199215
