Need MemoryStick driver Ricoh R5C592 (part of R5C832/822chipset)

[Matthew Woerly]

*** NOTE: this is a *wishlist* item - a request for new functionality. This issue is a request to have MemoryStick support added for a specific, and somewhat popular, chipset. Please do not add "me, too" items. We know that it doesn't work. If you want, please add yourself as a subscriber, and click on link to indicate that "This bug effects me, too"

You are welcome to test the new developed drivers at

http://gitorious.org/ricoh-kernel

You can download them ether by doing (preferred):
git clone git://gitorious.org/ricoh-kernel/ricoh-kernel.git

Then you can receive updates using
git pull

or you can press on 'Source tree' and download a snapshot by pressing 'Download master as tar.gz'

XD support is also done and merged in 2.6.35 (backport in above tree)

SD cards are detected, but Memory Stick cards are not. Bugs have been posted for the lack of support for XD and MMC cards as well.

[Eymen A (eal)]

Using 2.6.24-19-generic,
I can confirm Memory Stick cards are not detected at all.

[Matthew Woerly (nattgew)]

Thanks for confirming... I know the newest kernel at least (2.6.25.7) has an option for Ricoh readers. Does that fix this? I haven't had the chance to check...

[AndiTheBest (andreas-weidlinger)]

Does SD cards work in your reader?
i have the rev22 too and i tried to compile the ricoh_mmc modules from 2.6.25.9 and add them to my 2.6.24-19 (ubuntu) kernel but now i have kernel freezes when i put in a SD card.

greetz, Andi

[Matthew Woerly (nattgew)]

Yes, SD cards work by default for me with the Ubuntu kernel. Memory Sticks do not. Does recompiling ricoh_mmc do anything for Memory Sticks?

[AndiTheBest (andreas-weidlinger)]

For me, the Cardreader completely doesn't work. i don't know why... you can try it, but save your original .ko files.

greetz.

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test:

1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux-image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test.

--or--

2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD.

Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback.

[Sybrand (sybrand-strauss)]

I compiled with 2.6.27-rc5 and tried - the bug remains.

[Matthew Woerly (nattgew)]

With the 2.6.27-7 Intrepid kernel, this problem remains.

[Noel J. Bergman (noeljb)]

Remove this from being a duplicate of Bug 202490. Although both are related to missing drivers for the RICOH media reader, that is for an xD driver, this is for a MemoryStick driver, and they are not the same.

[Noel J. Bergman (noeljb)]

Would someone with sufficient rights please mark this as a Wishlist litem?

[pruch (diogo-pruch)]

With the 2.6.27-9 Intrepid kernel, only the SD works. Memory Stick doesn't.

[Salvador Limones (nineunderground)]

Same problem on Sony Vaio FW series. Model FW21E.

Memory Stick dosen´t work

[Ali Shtarbanov (ametedinov)]

I have the same problem on hp Pavilion dv 6200. Memory sticks don't work. I am using the latest version of Ubuntu and the latest kernel. I also tried OpenSUSE 11.1 x64 (the latest), and many other distributions but still no success. I opened a bug too and it was marked as duplitace <a href=https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/314903>bug 314903</a>

[Noel J. Bergman (noeljb)]

> Memory sticks don't work.

Right. We know. There is simply no driver at all for the device. Perhaps someday there will be one.

[spiepie (spiepie)]

hi same problem with Sony Vaio VGN FS215E

removed windows so cant use memory stick slot any more should have stayed with MS?

dissapointed
si

[Matthew Woerly (nattgew)]

If it's very important that the built-in reader work, then, yes, you should have stayed with MS.
MemoryStick readers are pretty cheap and simple, if you need to read a MemoryStick, then you should go with that.

[Motin (motin)]

How hard is it to get hacking on a driver for this chipset?

As was the case for the Texas Instruments devices: "TI refused to publish a complete datasheet for any of the FlashMedia devices rendering them useless anywhere except M$ Windows"

Still, the tifmxx driver was and is being developed.

So, can this possibly be done for the Ricoh chipset? Maybe it's even possible to re-use code from the tifmxx driver (MS specifications, code structure etc)?

Project page TI driver:
http://developer.berlios.de/projects/tifmxx

Maybe someone can create a new project in launchpad for this driver, set up the basic driver files etc and at least get a dummy driver up that detects that a MS or xD card has been inserted into the bay - so that we at least can inform the uninformed user that "Sorry, but there are currently no available drivers for MemoryStick or xD cards for your built-in card reader"

What about that?

I'm just curious... is there any way to work around this issue? Are there wrappers that you could use on the windows drivers like we do with wireless (ndiswrapper)? Is there a way to access it using windows as a guest OS in VirtualBox?

[Kyle (thedletterman)]

I have not found any working ways to resolve this issue short of dual booting. In a host/client virtualization, the client only has virtualized access to the hardware that is installed by the host OS and identified by the virtualization program.

Kyle

SD cards work flawlessly out of the box. No extra drivers needed. I believe the duties are handled by mmc_block kernel module driver. Maybe also ricoh_mmc module, not sure.

I haven't tried MMC cards but they supposedly work using the following workaround: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=731892

The same trick doesn't work for MS cards as suggested by the aforementioned thread.

[Geek87 (geek87)]

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

I have exams now, in about 2 months, I plan to write the driver.

[Vladimir Hidalgo (vlad88sv)]

Great to hear some hopes on this!, even through some users had to wait almost 2 years for this support, their patience will be rewarded!.

I'm on Linux 2.6.34-020634-generic and only SD works.

[AlexW (alex.wedensky)]

tested out the 2.6.35-rc1-lucid kernel from PPA with Maxim's fixes re: Ricoh SD controller -- SD cards work, MS Pro Duo -- no go.

[Vladimir Hidalgo (vlad88sv)]

Where did you found such fixes?, I think Maxim has not done them as yet!

[VuDu (vudu-curse)]

I'm curious too. Did Maxim produced any patches already?

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

I didn't yet.
I did wrote driver to read xD cards with this controller though. It is in 2.6.35.

As soon as I finish exams, I get to it.

[AlexW (alex.wedensky)]

good luck with your exams, Max!

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

To those that didn't believe that I would write the driver...

Everything works more or less OK here.
Note that this driver is very experimental, thus don't use with valuable data.

Thanks for Alex Dubov for writing the memorystick subsystem, and personal help for understanding how MemorySticks work.
This did shorten my work by very large percent.

Missing features:
high level support MemoryStick Standard support (<128M), because Alex didn't finish debugging it, and now too busy doing so
These cards are also quite raw, thus one have to be careful not to wear sectors (they don't have wear leveling).
I hope I will add that support too. Can't say exactly when.

My driver does transport commands for these devices, there is just need for high-level driver.
(I actually did full dump of my 64MB memory stick standard duo)

Compilation is simple: make && sudo make install.

Then to load (on next boot it will load automaticly)
sudo make load

Tested on 2.6.35, but _should_ work on 2.6.34 and maybe even below.
Package contains both my driver and whole memstick subsystem.
I also add small udev rule to display correct icon for the device.

Note that its normal that card won't be automounted on insert, this is due to stupidity of devicekit.

Please look at 'Places' before deciding that driver doesn't work.

[paolo (morhelm)]

thank you for this! will test when i have my lapitopy repaired. ^_^

[Reloweb (reloweb)]

I will test it soon!

[Stunts (f-pinamartins)]

Thank you for this driver!

However, I get the following after making sudo make load:

modprobe -r r592
FATAL: Module r592 not found.
make: *** [load] Error 1

What's missing here?

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

do:

sudo depmod -a
sudo modprobe r592

[Stunts (f-pinamartins)]

sudo depmod -a

gives no output.

sudo modprobe r592

results in:

So I guess it's still a no go for me..

[Leon Alvarez (locoxella)]

Maxim, just wanted to tell: you are the man.

Its been several days, weeks, or whatever since im following your advance with this driver. You are awesome. Thanks for all the work you've done so far.

[Stunts (f-pinamartins)]

Just one extra comment:

This will not work on Lucid. Since the kernel 2.6.34, some block layer functions have been renamed. Therefore, under 2.6.32, this will not compile.

It is, however, in theory, possible to hack the source code to rename the mentioned functions. One example error is here:

... r592/core/mspro_block.c:1231: error: implicit declaration of function ‘blk_queue_max_segments’

And here is where I found out what the problem was:

http://old.nabble.com/Kernel-2.6.34-td28609864.html

Anyway, once again, excellent job!

[locust (marineworks)]

Hallo Maxim,
really thanks for your work !

David

[Stas Solovey (whats-up)]

Under 2.6.32, this will not compile.
mspro_block.c:1231: error: implicit declaration of function ‘blk_queue_max_segments’

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

@Stunts, and as soon as I finish debugging one minor bug I found in the driver (after suspend/resume, card is removed then inserted due to IO error), I port it there.

In fact you can just compile _only_ r592.c against 2.6.32 memstick core, and it probably will work.
I update that soon.

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

Slightly updated version.
Fixed the above bug, made it compile on 2.6.32 (trivial problem)
Minor refactoring & correctness fixes

Sorry about that, updated driver below

I tried "r592-v2" and i was able to make and sudo make install wihtout any issue on Ubuntu lucid with the last Kerner.

After a reboot, I tried to mount a Memory stick pro duo 2GB and it really works, i was able to read and write on it!

Great work! Thank you.

P.s.
I tried it only once, if after i will discover some bug, i will let u know.

Will this be implemented in the next version of Ubuntu? I mean will it be available in the ISO?

I guess 03:00.0 and 03:00.4 are for SD and 03:00.1 is the magic gate, but it does not seem to be picked up by your driver.

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

Because that is different device.
I don't know how different that device it, but my driver currently only attaches to R5C852 devices

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

It also looks like Ricoh wrote brand new driver for this device, so it might be very different.

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

@Vladimir Hidalgo

You could still try to use my driver. If and only if the device you have is very similar (there is small possibility about that.), my driver might work.

 you can try to change the source in this way:

In r592.c, find this structure:

static const struct pci_device_id r592_pci_id_tbl[] = {

 { PCI_VDEVICE(RICOH, 0x0592), },
 { },
};

And change it to:

static const struct pci_device_id r592_pci_id_tbl[] = {

 { PCI_VDEVICE(RICOH, 0x0592), },
        { PCI_VDEVICE(RICOH, 0xe230), },
 { },
};

Tested on Ubuntu Lucid with 2.6.32-24 generic kernel (with a 1GB MS Pro Duo). Confirmed working like a charm. Thanks for the good work, Maxim!

[Vladimir Hidalgo (vlad88sv)]

Thank you for your time Maxim.

Well, I guess I'm out of luck, made the change, rebooted and now your driver is picked, but nothing else happen when I insert the card.

After 1 day of testing it I got this situation:

it works without any problem with a Sandisk memory stick pro duo of 2GB and it doesn't work with the same memory stick but this time of 4GB.

When i plug in the one of 4GB the light start to blink for few secs and nothing more. After this the drive stop to work and wont mount even the one of 2GB which was working before.

If i restart the pc or deactivate and reactivate the drivers, the device starts to work again but only with the card of 2GB.

Note: After that i remove the 4GB card and i try to deactivate the drivers or restart ubuntu everything freeze for several seconds.

Hope for a fix:)

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

@Gabrielcik, the card isn't by a chance a MemoryStick PRO HG?

Could you contact me via IRC so I will try some debugging on your system?
(I am MaximLevitsky on freenode)

[Gabrielcik (miliy-multik)]

I use a Sandisk Memory stick PRO Duo 4GB (Magic gate) identical to my previous one of 2GB.

I attach part of the debug.log, i hope it can be useful.
(u can find what happen when i use a 2GB card and then what happen when i use the other one of 4GB)

About IRC i have never used it, so if it is still needed i will try to understand in what way to contact u.

Thank you.

P.s.

I tried it again and the same result, it seems to work with the one of 4G but under Places doesn't appear anything and then the pc became unstable and freeze if i want to restart it.

[Gabrielcik (miliy-multik)]

It is me again...

I was able to make it works...

I made this test: Mount the card with my usb adaptor, copy everything on the hd and format the memory stick.

While i was coping the content, i noticed the presence of a couple of video files (i use the card as memory of a video camera) which were broken and not possible to be copied on the hd.

So i finally formatted the card and mounted without the usb adaptor. It worked! Next step was to copy everything back and un- mount and re-mount it... Still working :)

The problem was probably then in somehow connected with those broken files. (with the USB adapter was working even with these files)

Thank you!

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

This doesn't justify the behavior of memstick subsystem and/or devicekit.

But anyway, it is very likely not a bug in the driver but rather in memorystick subsystem.

[Jan Skala (101speirs)]

Hello,

I have found this by accident. I'm waiting for this for a long time, but it still doesn't finish my waiting. I own two old Memory Sticks - 16 and 128MB. Yes you have written something about core and 128MB cards, actually I don't understood that. I use standard Ubuntu 10.04 with its' latest kernel.

When I insert 16MB MS it blinks twice.

dmesg outputs:

[ 3158.043280] r592: IRQ: card added

when I put 128MB card in it blinks only once and dmesg outputs:

[ 3296.160127] memstick_host memstick0: memstick_check started

[ 3339.970332] memstick_host memstick0: memstick_check finished

Newertheless nothing works, but I look forward it will once and I thank you for your effort. I would like to help you with anything. (Now I'm waiting for another MS 1GB so I can add some other feedback.)

[Vladimir Hidalgo (vlad88sv)]

Maxim Levitsky, do you have any plans on supporting Ricoh Co Ltd Device e230?, or I should lose any hope on this?

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

Jan Skala, both your memstick aren't PRO, and thus not supported yet.
I am writing the support right now.

It is very unlikely that I do the driver for that device, because I
suspect that this is very different device.
Maybe I buy a laptop with this device sometime in future.

[Vladimir Hidalgo (vlad88sv)]

Maxim, I understand.

There's any possibility that if I provide you with any data you need about this device, can you determine if it's possible to make this driver wherever is possible?

I could even let a memory card inserted and full 24/7 SSH access to you if needed!

If I were wealthy, I would send you a free laptop for developing, sadly, that's not the case LOL.

Anyway, thank you for your time and dedication to make Linux even better.

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

@Jan Skala and evereone else.

Here is new version.
All last week I was busy writing support for old memory stick cards.
Now it work quite well.
Note that such card are bare (that is no wear leveling, bad block hiding), and thus all the hard work is done by my driver.

Therefore it can in theory damage the card by overwriting the same sector over and over.
However, I put it a lot f safety checks and thus if anything goes wrong I turn off write access completely.
I tested it for few days on my 64MB card, and it does work very well.

[Jan Skala (101speirs)]

Hi, thank you for your work. Yesterday, new MS Pro Duo 1GB arrived and it works fine. Now I'm testing those two old MS 16 and 128MB and they are working as well. The time of stupid cable connection ends.

[VuDu (vudu-curse)]

Doesn't seem to be working, might it be because it's a R5C592?

Btw, are you hosting your project on svn, git or something?

Thanks for your work. ;)

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

@VuDu

Please load the driver with debug=2

sudo modprobe -r r592
sudo modprobe r592

Insert the card and post the kernel log.

It might be that your card is PRO HG inside and might not be supported by hardware.
Or this might be contact issue.

[Jan Skala (101speirs)]

VuDu, I have also "Ricoh Co Ltd R5C592 Memory Stick Bus Host Adapter". You just have to open "Computer" or "Places" where the card will appear.

[Daniel Gimpelevich (daniel-gimpelevich)]

I have a 16GB M2 card I tried this with, and it worked fine, but it
filled up the dmesg logs needlessly. So, I turned off DEBUG, and it
stopped working! Evidently, it was relying on the delay resulting from
successive printk() executions. I decided to leave in DEBUG and make
verbosity optional, but at least one delay had to be added for it to
work again. Attached is a patch to your most recent tarball. Thank you!

[VuDu (vudu-curse)]

@Maxim: tryed it again, now in debug and it worked. :) Mounted and it read the M2 contents :)
The tried with a Lexar 4G MS Duo Pro but it wouldn't mount.

here's the dmesg tail:

It's from a PSP and the PSP can read and write to it. Using the USB card readers works fine. Hope it helps.

[VuDu (vudu-curse)]

Btw, I know this is a ubuntu bug tracker, but I'm using ArchLinux now. I was using ubuntu the first time I commented. ;)

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

@VuDu.

What you are seeing with Lexar card, might be the ugliest problem that nobody would accept a fix for.

I have seen this as well.
It seems that card readers look at partition table and 'corrects' it on the fly, but my driver just passes what is written.

What I need is two dumps of first say 1MB of the card, using my driver and usb card reader.

Do something like that:

For my driver (please _don't_ use mspblk0p1!)
dd if=/dev/mspblk0 of=file_r852 bs=1K count=1024

And for card reader, figure out which of sdb/sdc/.. etc is the reader, and do

If card reader is sdb, then:

dd if=/dev/sdb of=file_usb bs=1K count=1024

If you have any sensitive data on the card, it might be included in dump. Don't post then!

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

@Daniel Gimpelevich, the delay you have to add really worries me.
There is something very ugly going on....
Can you contact me via IRC (I am MaximLevitsky on freenode), so we could debug that together?

@VuDu, I would be interesting in some debugging too

@Vudo, you have 4GB of memory or more on the system, right?

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

@stmc

First load my card with

sudo modprobe -r r592
sudo modprobe -r r592 debug=2

Then insert one of non-working cards, and post the kernel log.

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

Updated version

[VuDu (vudu-curse)]

@Maxim, yes, running arch x64 with 4GB of RAM. What was the problem? ;)

[VuDu (vudu-curse)]

@Maxim, is that last memstick-v2.tar.bz2 (34.3 KiB, application/x-tar) more recent then the previous memstick-v3.tar.bz2 (30.3 KiB, application/x-tar)?
Are you using some VCS on your work?
I was thinking about creating a package for archlinux and it would be easier to get the last version of your work from svn/bzr/git than a link from here that gets "broken" with every update.

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

@VuDu.

Yep, sorry about version number confusion.

I use git here, but I create a snapshot.
(Actually I mostly work directly on kernel tree)

The problem was bad dma handling to memory > 4GB
(And yes, you have it, because some of the memory < 4GB is used for IO devices, so to compensate, some of the system memory
is placed at > 4GB address)

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

@Maxim Levitsky, it is my blame, card was not formatted
now it working fine

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

Both non-working cards work now, right?
Did you install latest version now?
Do the cards work consistently, that is if you instert/remove them few times, do they always work?

@VuDu:

[Stas Solovey (whats-up)]

@Maxim Levitsky,
I reinstall driver from your post #107 "memstick-v2.tar.bz2", I think it is the latest.
All cards always work.

[VuDu (vudu-curse)]

@Maxim: tried the last version and it works fine on both cards. But, I can confirm what stmc said: the first time I tried, they failed to mount.

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

@Vudu, so with latest version, card still fails to mount on first attempt?

Can you try few more times. Can you reproduce this?
Maybe it was just bad contact or something.

[VuDu (vudu-curse)]

Now I can't know since it's working and I don't have another untested card.

From the tests I did with my 2 cards (one a M2) it seems that when I first try to mount a card it fails with that filesystem error. After that, it works just fine. Happened with the M2 using the v3 (previous version) and the Lexat MS Duo Pro using the v2 (latest version).

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

Backported drivers for xD and MS parts (+fixes for MMC part) are now hosted at gitorious.org
Since last release, not much have been changed.

http://gitorious.org/ricoh-kernel

You can download it ether by doing (preffered):
git clone git://gitorious.org/ricoh-kernel/ricoh-kernel.git

Then you can receive updates using
git pull

or you can press on 'Source tree' and download a snapshot by pressing 'Download master as tar.gz'

[VuDu (vudu-curse)]

gitorious, nice :)

Maxim, do you expect your work to be merged to kernel soon?
I'm probably going to make a package for Archlinux, but if it's closed to be merged to kernel, maybe it's not necessary. ;)

Once again, thanks for your work. =)

[Stunts (f-pinamartins)]

Too old kernel (this supports 2.6.32+)
However I will add a compat code there.
The xD part I think should compile on 2.6.31.

I'm running Ubuntu 9.04 on Sony Vaio

[Murali Krishnan (maakri)]

Sony Vaio running Ubuntu 10.04. The media stick and sd card work perfectly once the file was made and installed.

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

@swissz, I have just pushed an update that should make my driver compile and work on your kernel (2.6.31)

@Sneha, really please update your distro, I really don't feel like backporting it to 2.6.28...

[Nishant (nishant-singh28)]

First of all....tonnes of thanks for this driver.....you guys saved me loads of cable troubles.
One more thing....just a thought, but it will be easier for people like me if you could write the three step instructions clearly in one place. I had to read through the thing to find them. You know all of us aren't uber geeks ( no offence ).
And yeah, the details:
Card Reader Ricoh 822 on Ubuntu Maverick RC x86_64, Kernel 2.6.35-22, Dell Studio 1555 both read write working normally. Card is detected, doesn't automount on insert. Read write successful.

[gldickens3 (gordon-dickens)]

I am running 64 bit Ubuntu 10.10 on a Dell PRecision M6300 with the following SD card reader device:

03:01.2 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C592 Memory Stick Bus Host Adapter (rev 12)
03:01.3 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd xD-Picture Card Controller (rev 12)

I am running the following stock Ubuntu 10.10 kernel:

Linux rhino 2.6.35-22-generic #35-Ubuntu SMP Sat Oct 16 20:45:36 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I found the driver for the Ricoh device here:

http://gitorious.org/ricoh-kernel/ricoh-kernel/trees/master

Brilliant! Many thanks for developing this driver.

After downloading and extracting the tarball I installed the memstick driver with the following commands:

cd memstick
make
make install
make install load

However, my SD card still does not work. What might I be doing wrong? What else do I need to do to get it to work? Do I need to install anything else such as drivers from the mmc, user or xd directory. If so, please provide instructions.

Many thanks in advance of your reply!

Gordon Dickens

[King_DuckZ (king-duckz)]

Great work, thanks for your work!
Just to make a little report, this worked great on Debian Squeeze 2.6.32-5, but it doesn't build at all on Mandriva 2.6.33, whining about round_down and other functions not being defined. Adding an include linux/kernel.h or removing the kernel version check around the defines in compatibility.h only causes more errors.

[Jior (tepanahui)]

Finally, my Ricoh R5C822 works at all in Ubuntu 10.10, but first i had to do some few things.

1.- open synaptic and mark for install
     linux-headers-2.6.37-5
     linux-headers-2.6.37-5-generic
     linux-image-2.6.37-5-generic

2.- then restart : sudo restart -n

3.- goto software origins and enable backports

4.- then: sudo apt-get update

5.- edit the modules file : sudo gedit /etc/modules and add the sd module tifm_sd to load on start
     and make sure you have it: sudo modprobe tifm_sd
                                                 sudo modprobe tifm_core
                                                 sudo modprobe tifm_7xx1

6.- add some modules for dirs 03:01.x doing sudo modprobe raw1394 and sudo modprobe dv1394

7.-restart again, enter bios, and disable legacy floppy by selecting disable or in some bios just deactivate the boot search in a
floppy drive from the boot secuence (generally with space bar on floppy option in boot secuence, the number on the left side disappears)

8.- just in case sudo modprobe -r floppy

9.-install git doing sudo apt-get git and follow the above instructions

10.- reboot for las time and card reader should work

Important:

Do not try to pull setpci command for kernels 2.6.22 or above
And if you are using virtualbox (ose or branded) 3.2.8 or later you will need to deactivate the floppy support

I really dont know why the cause of this problem, but just for you to know, the ricoh card reader always works for me since 8.04 until 10.04, it just now in 10.10 i have the problem, but reading some forums it seems to be an old item since jaunty.

I probe SD and MMC, i dont use MS, so i dont know if MS support is present.
hope this info could help

Was working fine, not any more after 10.10. The above instructions seem to handle Memory Sticks. How to get SD card reading back to live?

Symptoms: Cards are recognized and do automount, but result in a read error.

10.10 contains 2.6.35, and it since it still uses CONFIG_MMC_RICOH_MMC,
none of my code affects the SD portion.

Which kernel did work?
Did you try with different SD card?

Could you post kernel log?

Not working here as well on 11.04, x64,Kernel 2.8.38-8, same problem as #145

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

I got the driver merged in 2.6.39, so it will appear in next ubuntu version.
(That is minus support for old legacy memorysticks, that while works perfectly, isn't merged because kernel developers pick on minor details of my driver, and I have no time to redone them)

[Nishant (nishant-singh28)]

@Maxim: That's awesome news, but do you plan to make it work on 2.6.38? Coz' next Ubuntu release isn't till October.

I ended up figuring out the problem I reported up there. There was a difference in spelling of "freezable". After correcting the spelling, it worked fine.

I think the method is to place the folder in places/home, right click and
open with the archive manager
this should detect that it is a software package and handle correctly
Or perhaps do some reading - official documentation or ubuntu forums for the
latest word on the subject
sometimes with Tarballs (fancy zip folder) you need to place it in the
correct place and ubuntu can be hardware specific so don't ask me
I haven't bothered trying it as my wife has that machine, good luck

The r592.c, driver for MS portion of Ricoh card readers is merged in 2.6.39, so it will appear in ubuntu sooner or later.

The ms_block.c driver for legacy memsticks (128MB and less) is not yet merged, but I doubt you need it.

[Maxim Levitsky (maximlevitsky)]

Also, thanks to Unity, I use kubuntu now, and I exploring possibilities to switch to another distro to have up-to-date KDE.

[Simone Lussardi (simone-lussardi)]

Hello guys,

I have modified your source Maxim to compile on Kernel 3 and Ubuntu 11.10 (I tested 32 bit only), I have attached the patch here, hope is useful to somebody ! If someone need, I also have a version that compile on Ubuntu 11.04.

For all those with Lenovo T400, the 7.1 reader is not in the Kernel by default, and need to compile and install manually.

As for the original, just unpack anything into a folder, open a terminal and cd into that folder, then:
make
sudo make install
sudo make load

It will then reload automatically at startup.

Cheers guys,
Simone

Excerpt from /boot/config-3.0.0-12-generic on 11.10:

#
# MemoryStick Host Controller Drivers
#
CONFIG_MEMSTICK_TIFM_MS=m
CONFIG_MEMSTICK_JMICRON_38X=m
# CONFIG_MEMSTICK_R592 is not set
CONFIG_NEW_LEDS=y
CONFIG_LEDS_CLASS=y

Any chance of a SRU with that set to =m?

[Tim Gardner (timg-tpi)]

SRU Justification

Impact: there is currently no support for MEMSTICK_R592 devices

Patch Description: Enable CONFIG_MEMSTICK_R592 as a module. This should have little chance of regression except on those platforms that support this device, and a mem stick is inserted.

SRU was released without this fix...

[Herton R. Krzesinski (herton)]

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel for Oneiric in -proposed solves the problem (3.0.0-14.23). Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-oneiric' to 'verification-done-oneiric'.

If verification is not done by one week from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

[Simone Lussardi (simone-lussardi)]

Updated the Kernel, my cards are all there !!! I can confirm that it works so far.

[Daniel Gimpelevich (daniel-gimpelevich)]

The kernel in -proposed does NOT work. With the 3.0.0-12 kernel and the patch posted earlier, it worked. With the stock 3.0.0-14, it does not detect the MSPro card at all unless the card is already inserted before the module is probed. If the card is removed, nothing works until the module is unloaded and reloaded with a card already in the reader.

[Daniel Gimpelevich (daniel-gimpelevich)]

This bug is NOT fixed in Oneiric. Why is it marked "Fix Released" now?

[Brad Figg (brad-figg)]

@daniel

The patch enabled the CONFIG_MEMSTICK_R592 kernel config parameter. I can confirm that it is enabled in the 3.0.0-14 kernel that I have installed which is the one from -proposed. It looks like this fix worked for at leas one person (see comment #165). Even if this change does not fix everyones issue I believe that it does for some.

[Brad Figg (brad-figg)]

@daniel,

There is quite a bit of variation in the SD cards from different vendors. Have you tried cards from different vendors and do they all fail?

[Daniel Gimpelevich (daniel-gimpelevich)]

SD cards work fine. My M2 card in the MSPro adapter works fine with
the patch posted above, but with the new kernel, there is the
aforementioned problem requiring removing and reinserting the module
every time to get it to work correctly.

[Ahmet Öztürk (dmxe)]

in my system it just works now after the latest kernel updates.
