Richard Hull,

you should work this out together with Pierre Ossman and the rest of the mmc and sdhci developers. You already know how to compile your own kernel so I don't think there should be any problems. I'd suggest you start by checking out the lastest upstream kernel from git and try that. (The reason I'm not simply suggesting trying Ubuntu's latest binary vanilla-git build is that you'll end up compiling from source no matter how we slice it so you might as well start doing it).

When you've done that you should write about your findings to <email address hidden>. Also cc <email address hidden>, <email address hidden> and me as well. In general, if you need assistance of any kind I'd be glad to help you out.

@Cpp: I don't think your card is completely faulty, since there is no problems using it from Windows. It is possible that Windows run the card at a slower speed and avoids the problems that way, but whether it's a problem with your card, the reader or Linux drivers is the good question I guess. I hope Richard will pick this up, there's a fair chance that a solution for his hardware will help everyone.

@DiVoRaM: Since you have different hardware and it is a regression (i.e. it worked with an earlier release but doesn't now) you should open a separate bug for your problem. That is after you've searched for duplicate bugs for your hardware of course.
