Internal card reader does not work on Acer Extensa 4014

[n_v_v]

Looks like the device is listed (unknown device option?), but nothing happens. Any idea? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
Please include as attachments the following additional information, if you have not already done so (please pay attention to lspci's additional options), as required by the Ubuntu Kernel Team:
1. Please include the output of the command 'uname -a' in your next response. It should be one, long line of text which includes the exact kernel version you're running, as well as the CPU architecture.
2. Please run the command 'dmesg > dmesg.log' and attach the resulting file 'dmesg.log' to this bug report.
3. Please run the command 'sudo lspci -vvnn > lspci-vvnn.log' and attach the resulting file 'lspci-vvnn.log' to this bug report.

Preferences -> Sound -> any test button hangs. I have no sound.
Strange, but right after the boot I hear "welcome" sound. Then the sound disappears.

[n_v_v (n-v-v)]

Ups, sorry, disregard the message about the sound. I mixed the things up.

The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducable with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Gutsy Gibbon. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the actively developed kernel. You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.
