Comment 10 for bug 366478

Pascal,

Can't be closed for my part of the bug - Kubuntu won't boot with my card
reader attached to the motherboard. At all. Hangs continuously - and fails
to move past the detection of the card reader.

I don't see how this bug can be closed really - not until all the individual
elements of this issue are resolved and reported as completely closed out.

Thanks,

Mark.
