|  Jim Bednar, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu
|  better. As per http://download.lenovo.com/express/ddfm.html an
|  update to your BIOS is available (2.24). If you update to this
|  following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate does it
|  change anything?  

Thanks.  I've updated the BIOS, but I don't see any change in
behavior.  In the process, I did btw check that the card reader works
fine in Windows 7.

|  If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and
|  provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo
|  dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
                                                                                                                                                      
$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Title:
  [Lenovo ThinkPad X240] RTS5227 card reader not recognized on running
  Ubuntu 14.04

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  According to
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1153618, support
  for the RTS5227 SD card reader was added in  2013 for kernel version
  3.5.0.  However, SD cards are not recognized for my Lenovo Thinkpad
  X240 running the much later release Ubuntu 14.04 with kernel version
  3.13.0, for which lspci reports:

  02:00.0 Unassigned class [ff00]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
  RTS5227 PCI Express Card Reader (rev 01)

  That appears to be the same symptom as when there was no support at
  all.  Any idea what happened to the support for this SD card reader,
  or what I can do to work around it?
