["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Mark909, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please just make a comment about it?

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (v3.13-rc3, not rc4 as it doesn't have all the necessary files) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc3

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  [Sony VAIO VGN-G21VN_B] Ricoh R5C843 SD Card reader not working

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Unknown
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  SD Card reader is not working. When I insert a SD or SDHC card nothing happens.
  The reader is not even listed under lspci.

  I have updated all the packages with apt.

  I tried to boot Ubuntu (12.04) with an SD plugged in but no luck.

  Thanks.

  Note that this notebook has a (separate slot) Ricoh R5C592 Memory
  Stick Reader that is working as expected (auto mounts the MS when
  inserted in the reader).

  Expected behavior: SD card reader to correctly read the inserted SD
  card.
