Both udev monitor and devkit-disks monitor logs are completely empty. This means that the computer did not detect _any_ hardware change at all while you ran the interactive bug reporting. Can you please confirm that you inserted the SD card into the reader?

[dkapell (david-rigitech)]

Yes, I inserted the card when I was prompted to.

[Kris (kriscampbell4)]

Using a SDHC16.4GB card I am able to mount manually, (selected under 'places') but not automatically
I also ran the ubuntu-bug test and here is my output.

It seems that there are no udev events at all for this, and no kernel output either. So this is different from Andy's original report in bug 429257, and this looks like a kernel bug.

[Jeremy Foshee (jeremyfoshee)]

Hi dkapell,

This bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/ .

If it remains an issue, could you run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux 479193

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.
