My Card Reader doesn't work

Post by bedo2991 »

<francesco> Suhana: I insert a card and the system does nothing, I don't know the model name, is there any way to find it from the terminal?
<Suhana> francesco : open a terminal, install pastebinit with ` apt install pastebinit `, then once that is ready, type ` lspci | pastebinit ` and paste the resulting url in here.
<Suhana> (make sure you have a card in when you type the latter command)

<Suhana> francesco : okay, eject the card, wait a moment or two, then reinsert the card and type ` dmesg | tail -20 | pastebinit ` and again paste the url please.

<Suhana> Kernel isn't picking it up, but I don't know why. You will need to ask in the forums (paste in the contents of those two outputs - will save people some time)

The pc is a DELL Studio 15 laptop (1558). The card reader is the default one (8-in-1 Media Card Reader), but I don't know the exact model name / number. Any ideas?

[Edit] your original post and add [SOLVED] once your question is resolved.

“The people are my God” stressing the factor determining man’s destiny lies within man not in anything outside man, and thereby defining man as the dominator and remoulder of the world.
