Re: Card reader not working, but worked in Mint gnome?
My Dell Inspiron 9400 has a Richoh reader built in for SD, and to get LM KDE to use it I have to boot with a card in the reader, after boot, eject the card, put it back in and then do a refresh in Storage Media. After that the card shows up and is readable. With out a card in the slot it seems to just ignore that the reader is there during boot.theZoid wrote:My card reader is not working I just noticed.....anything I need to do?

I'll check the 5 in 1 reader I have in the desktop when I get back home over the weekend. I know I can read it as I double checked it when I did the install, but don't remember doing anything special for it, but its one of the first installable 5/1 readers that would fit in a floppy drive slot, I've had it for a while.
So:
Put SD card or media into a slot
boot
open storage media
eject media
insert media
hit refresh
Media should appear.
Re: Card reader not working, but worked in Mint gnome?
thanks, but that doesn't work for me. Actually, that's what I remember doing in gnome....? Wait...I'm trying to read a 2 gig SD card...is that a problem?rec9140 wrote:My Dell Inspiron 9400 has a Richoh reader built in for SD, and to get LM KDE to use it I have to boot with a card in the reader, after boot, eject the card, put it back in and then do a refresh in Storage Media.

Re: Card reader not working, but worked in Mint gnome?
Unfortunately I've got an office full of 1g and 512MB cards.......and I think the card in the reader at home is a 1GB too.theZoid wrote:rec9140 wrote:thanks, but that doesn't work for me.

Re: Card reader not working, but worked in Mint gnome?
I've got a 1 gig card card around somewhere...I'll try it for sh$ts and grins and 'port back if it makes a difference.rec9140 wrote:Unfortunately I've got an office full of 1g and 512MB cards.......and I think the card in the reader at home is a 1GB too.theZoid wrote:rec9140 wrote:thanks, but that doesn't work for me.

I think Richoh has a proiblem with xd cards
Do a search for

You could also try the spelling Richoh

Re: Card reader not working, but worked in Mint gnome? [Solved]
Solved....I reinstalled without the darned SD card in the reader, and now it magically works, no problem
