My multi-card reader "just works" so this is just a bug with Ricoh's as pointed out.

Yeah, I've got multiple multicard readers, and they all work fine with all different types of flash memory. Bug reports don't belong in Brainstorm.

I have Ricoh card reader in my HP laptop - the bug comes from the kernel module for it. I've installed 2.6.24 kernel - MMC/SD work! Tryed 2.6.25rc2 and 2.6.25rc3 - MS/MSpro are working too then!
PS. xD not working yet

I have a HP Pavilion zd8060us and the last time I checked the card reader did not work. There was a hack to get the SD reader portion to work but that was it. The card reader uses a Texas Instruments chipset.

If bugs don't belong here, how come you can enter a bug number as part of an idea?

Same problem here, SD card works but MMC doesn't.

I'm talking about the internal card reader, via pci, not the external usb card readers.... the external ones just work fine, it's the internal's one that doesn't work. I looked around about this, and i haven't found anything concret at all, i read about some rc kernels, but isn't the idea to work out of the box???
anyway, i can't get it to work yet. :/

Same problem here, very frustrating. I am not using linux anymore, that lame sw is missing basic features. I am so angry that i break something...
