Bug Description
A laptop has an SD card reader with PCI interface. This needs the driver (rts_pstor.tar.bz2) from Realtek. Its source is free for download from Realtek website, but the driver is not included in Ubuntu nor upstream kernel.
Current driver version is v1.08 released on 2010/12/15. It is verified to work on Maverick, but failed to get compiled on 2.6.37 Natty kernel.
* Update on 2010/Jan/21
The driver author from Realtek fixed the compiling error against 2.6.37 kernel. Also he sent the driver in the staging tree mailing list for review.
