SD Card reader is not working. When I insert a SD or SDHC card nothing happens.
The reader is not even listed under lspci.

I have updated all the packages with apt.

I tried to boot Ubuntu (12.04) with an SD plugged in but no luck.

Thanks.

Note that this notebook has a (separate slot) Ricoh R5C592 Memory Stick Reader that is working as expected (auto mounts the MS when inserted in the reader).

Expected behavior: SD card reader to correctly read the inserted SD card.
