My ExpressCard plugs in, but it's not triggering any event at all
tail -f /var/log/messages
does nothing. Plugged in my mem stick to validate I typed correctly.
Also, Computer doesn't show the digital camcorder, nor can I see the device in any way I have looked (Doesn't show on blkid probe, either.) So, any ideas how to get this hardware rolling???
Thanks,
Clif

Re: Can't ID Firewire via ExpressCard
You have to tell us more facts.
The minimum is exactly which Mint you have - which version and which edition (main or any of the CEs)
We also need to know a bit about all your hardware.
Run " lspci " in a terminal and post here
Some wifi and possibly built in sound can be connected to USB even if they are internal - if you suspect you have one of these run " lsusb " in a terminal.
This topic contains links to all (?) the really good solutions for sound in Mint
Also tell us if this is using mint4win or not, quite important
This is a standard answer so it may not be fully applicable to your situation

Doesn't change anything when I plug in the Firewire via ExpressCard adapter
to the JVC Digital Camcorder GR-D90U
Also tail -f /var/log/messages results in no changes at all when the digital camcorder is plugged in.
It uses I believe it's AVC technology. Checked it on a WIndows machine, working very well. So it's definitely not the JVC.
