2.6.24-rc6: ricoh_mmc woes

[Harald Dunkel]

Hi folks,

I've got a problem with a Ricoh mmc reader. As soon as I insert a
sd card I get tons of I/O errors. syslog says:

The ricoh_mmc disabler module is installed as a module. udev loads it
at boot time. But AFAICS I get the same errors if ricoh_mmc is removed.


lspci says

Of course the SD card works fine in another PC.

Any idea how to track this down? Please mail

You're getting some kind of bus transfer error. Did this work with 2.6.23?

Please enable CONFIG_MMC_DEBUG and include a copy of the output of dmesg.
