Comment 12 for bug 971876

Vylaern, yes I did try it with that kernel (I had forgotten that when I posted comment #10) in case it had already been sorted, but then reverted to the standard Quantal kernel. As I said above my reader is now working as I have installed the driver manually via

wget http://planet76.com/drivers/realtek/rts-bpp-dkms_1.1_all.deb
sudo apt-get install dkms
sudo dpkg -i rts-bpp-dkms_1.1_all.deb

What I don't understand is whether the driver should be automatically included in the kernel at some point, hence why I added Linux to the packages affected.
