[Debian-eeepc-devel] eee 900, linux 2.6.25, and card reader problem

[Alexey Lebedeff]

Don't found any mentions of this problem in wiki, so writing here.

After installing debian lenny on my eee, card reader was not working.

There was changes in 2.6.25 which was aimed to avoid some other
cardreader bugs, but also broken eee reader.

I applied fix from http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg28197.html
to 2.6.25 kernel and all started working smoothly.

As i can see, this patch is also needed for 2.6.26 from unstable.


And this patch was finally accepted into the kernel 2 weeks ago:
