[Bug 1293233] Re: Card reader not working on Dell Inspiron M301Z on xubuntu 14.04

 

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v3.14 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".


Thanks in advance.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  the card reader dont work on Xubuntu 14.04 on my Dell Inspiron M301z.

  After researching on the net, i found a solution :

  download driver realtek :

  http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=15&PFid=25&Level=4&Conn=3&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false

  install patch on rtsx.c

  http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/sys-
  block/rts_pstor/files/rts_pstor-
  linux-3.10.patch?diff_format=s&view=log

  after that :

  make

  sudo make install

  sudo depmod

  after install :

  sudo apt-get install libnss-myhostname

  reboot !! :-)

  The solution is based on the following pages  :

  ubuntu
