Internal ENE CB-712 SD Card reader shuts down machine when reading big files

[Agustín Kanashiro]

I have an Acer Aspire 3100 with internal ENE CB-712 card reader.
It works fine when I read small size SD memory cards (512 megabytes) but when I use bigger size cards (2-4 gigabytes), reading files turns the system erratic.

Mouse cursor moves erratically when reading-copying files. It happens systematically while reading/copying with Nautilus, Dolphin, command line, Mc. Everytime I copy bigger files (e.g. 32 megabytes) the system shuts down.
I am using 32 bit Ubuntu Karmic (2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:04:26 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux).

Name: ENE Technology Inc CB-712/4 Cardbus controller
Class: Cardbus bridge
Domain: 0
Bus, device, function: 6, 4, 0
IRQ: 20
Latency: 168
Bus Master: Yes
Memory: 4kb (32 Bit, non-prefechtable)
Kernel modules: yenta_socket

Last Kern.log logged lines before shut down:
Mar 9 22:16:39 cagadita kernel: [ 6500.026070] mmc1: new high speed SD card at address b368
Mar 9 22:16:39 cagadita kernel: [ 6500.280683] mmcblk0: mmc1:b368 SD 1.86 GiB
Mar 9 22:16:39 cagadita kernel: [ 6500.280844] mmcblk0: p1
Mar 9 22:17:09 cagadita kernel: [ 6530.433838] hda-intel: IRQ timing workaround is activated for card #0. Suggest a bigger bdl_pos_adj.

Is there any solution? Should I setup up something or recompile that module with an specific parameter?

Thanks

Hi Agustín,

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 535485

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.

Hi Jeremy,

I've installed Ubuntu Lucid amd64 and tried to reproduce de issue.
It is working better compared with the previous version, but it is still being a little erratic.
My kernel is:
Linux cagadita 2.6.32-21-generic #32-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 16 08:09:38 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I also ran the apport command as you wrote.
Thanks

Agustín
