Results: Same problem as originally reported. A 2GB SD card loads OK using both an internal (USB connected) card reader and the external Kingston card reader. A 16GB SD card fails to load via either interface. I note that when inserting into the internal reader, the "card inserted" LED flashes for perhaps 60 seconds, then turns solid (but card not mounted). This LED flashes perhaps 1-2 seconds when the 2GB card is inserted, then turns solid and the Device Notifier pops up on the desktop -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

After about 4 minutes (I actually forgot the card was still inserted) the Device Notifier popped up, I was able to browse the device in Dolphin. This applies to the 11.4, kernel 2.6.37.1 system with an internally connected USB reader. Perhaps it was always like this and I did not wait long enough. The problem still exists when using the externally connected Kingston card reader. The notification on the referenced 11.3 laptop with the pci based card reader was nearly instantaneous, so someting is still "not what would be expected". The Kingston reader and card mount very quickly on a Windows XP machine. An internally connected USB reader in the XP machine works as well. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I ran the following with both kernels in case there is useful info. To provide a baseline, with Kernel 2.6.36.1, I ran hwinfo >baseline , file attached I then inserted the 16GB SDHC card, the led on the internal (usb connected) reader flashed for 2-3 minutes, then went solid. I assume the flashing means the card is being read (or written) similar to USB stick flashing. At this point, the "device notifier" was not announcing the presence of the SHDC Card. I ran hwinfo >large1 . the file is attached Soon after starting execution of hwinfo >large1, but before it completed, the device notifier popped up announcing the availability of the SDHC card, the led on the reader began flashing again for 2-3 minutes. When the flashing stopped, I was able to browse the SDHC card in Dolphin. I re-ran hwinfo >large2 , the file is attached. I then updated the system (using YAST) to the new kernel, 2.6.36.6, and rebooted. I then inserted the 16GB SDHC card, the led on the internal (usb connected) reader flashed for 2-3 minutes, then went solid. At this point, the "device notifier" was not announcing the presence of the SHDC Card, same as kernel 2.6.36.1 I ran hwinfo >large3 . the file is attached As before, starting hwinfo > large3 caused the device notifier to pop-up. I waited until the flashing stopped, was able once again to browse the SDHC card. I then executed hwinfo > large4 , the file is attached. Inserting the SDHC card into the Kingston external USB reader yielded no indication of detection (after 5 plus minutes) with either kernel. hwinfo > largeext is the file for kernel 2.6.36.1, attached hwinfo > largeext2 is the file for kernel 2.6.36.6, attached -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Reports against openSUSE 11.4 and prior will not get the attention needed to resolve them before openSUSE 12.2 is release and openSUSE 11.4 becomes unmaintained. Please re-test with openSUSE 12.1 or openSUSE RC2+ and re-open with an updated Product if you still encounter your issue. We apologize for this issue not getting the attention it deserves but we are focusing our resources in the area where they will have the most impact for our users. We're working hard to make openSUSE 12.2 the best openSUSE release yet! -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
