Bug Description

Binary package hint: pcmcia-cs

I have a sandisk compactflash pcmcia card reader. I used to be able to plug in the pcmcia card with my CompactFlash card and have it mounted. I at least did it with breezy. Can't remember if I've done it since using dapper. It no longer allows me to do this.

I got this error when trying to insert the pcmcia card while already booted and logged in:

When I rebooted (since there had been a minor kernel upgrade) I got a similar error. In fact, the system wouldn't even boot. It never got to gdm.

I don't know if this will be fixed by release time. But I think that pcmcia CF card adapters are popular enough that I hope this is fixed sometime.

BTW, I rebooted into windows. The card mounted properly, so it isn't a hardware problem.

Hi david
Are you still using breezy?, could you please try to reproduce this issue with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Gutsy Gibbon. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the next release of Ubuntu. You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.

Basilio,

Thanks for the reminder. I hadn't tried it since updating to Gutsy from Feisty a couple of weeks ago. It works!! I will try it a few more times to make sure it isn't a chance occurence or isn't only working because of my current config (not docked, nothing else mounted, etc.)

-David
