I've a similar problem on an Acer Aspire 5300 (64 bit, it's a notebook and not a netbook): since I've upgraded to Jaunty (kernel 2.6.28.11) the SD card reader and the Express card reader aren't any more "hot plug" detected. If I boot my PC with a firewire or a SD card connected, the system detects the devices. On the opposite, if I insert a firewire or a SD card in the PC already running, the devices aren't detected.
Adding in /etc/modules the strings

pciehp pciehp_force=1 (command for hot plug function in Intrepid)
sdhci debug_quirks=1

and similar options in /etc/modprobe.d/opptions didn't change the situation: the module sdhci is loaded, but system doesn't detect the devices.

I have read it could be a problem connected with the module pciehp in the kernel 2.6.28: does anyone have more accurate information on the topic?
