[Daniel Kingsley <530277@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I sympathise with Walter and Hamish (being an Ubuntu novice).

Fortunately my brother in law isn't and was able to talk me through the
process.

What I did (with his help) was:

1.  Downloaded the patch.  You can use the GUI to extract it.  I left
the extracted folder sitting in the download directory, so the path was
/home/daniel/Downloads/keucr in my case (check where your browser has
put it).

Then open a terminal and type:

2.  sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic  [note: this seemed to be
unnecessary as they were already there]

3.  sudo apt-get install build-essential

4.  Then changed directory to the path where the folder is (in my case) 
cd ~/Downloads/keucr  
[the capital letter is needed] [The tilda seems to be shorthand for /home/yourusername]

5.  Then typed the following three instructions (you'll probably need to
enter your password after the second one).

make -C /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` M=`pwd` modules
sudo make -C /usr/src/linux-headers-`uname -r` M=`pwd` modules_install
sudo depmod -a

___________

That was it!

I had to restart my machine (perhaps more than once).

I thought it had had no effect and had almost given up.  I then
restarted my machine with the card in.  Again, no effect (at least I
thought) as the computer did not respond to me inserting the card , but
on checking with the Disk Utility the card was visible!  I was able to
pull photos off the SD card.

Having unmounted the card using the Disk Utility, I reinserted the card
and this time the system responded with a GUI window noting that I'd
inserted an SD card and asking which programme I'd like to view it with.

Hope this helps the other newbies like me.
