Title:
  Internal SD card reader is not working on Dell XPS L501X

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Inserting a sd card into the internal card reader is not recognized by
  the system. Same problem occurs with older ubuntu versions (driver
  missing?)

  WORKAROUND: Put the following in rescan.c:
  #include <stdio.h>
  main(){
    FILE *outfile;
    outfile=fopen("/sys/bus/pci/rescan","w");
    if (outfile != NULL){
      fprintf(outfile,"1\n");
      fclose(outfile);
    }
    else printf("permission denied\n");
  }

  then compile with:
  gcc rescan.c -o rescan
  sudo cp rescan /usr/local/bin
  sudo chown root /usr/local/bin/rescan
  sudo chmod u+s /usr/local/bin/rescan

  then in system->preferences->keyboard shortcuts, create a custom
  keybinding (Add). The command should point to /usr/local/bin/rescan .
