Hi all,

I've searched the archives and have tried all the various options for
hardware with this reader. Reader unplugged/computer off. Computer
off/reader plugged in/cf card inserted. acpi=off as a boot option. I
still can't get my reader to work.

My CF Reader is recognized when I click on Hardware Information in the
YaST Control Center. I saved some of the info and here is a portion of
it:

=== Begin Paste ===
UniqueID=B3Fu.mQjyTXZ2Nr3
ParentID=B3Fu.SX27nwPi+uA
HWClass=unknown
Model=SHUTTLE SCM Micro USBAT-02
Configured=no
Available=yes
Needed=no
Active=unknown
Bus=0x86
Slot=0x102
VendorID=u04e6
DeviceID=1010
DeviceName=USBAT-2 CompactFlash Card Reader
VendorName=Shuttle Technology Inc.
SubDeviceName=SCM Micro USBAT-02
SubVendorName=SHUTTLE
RevisionName=0.05
USBGUID=04e610100000000000000000
Hotplug=4
HWClassList=000000080040
Res.Baud=1500000,0,0,0x00,0x00

=== End Paste ---

It appears that SuSE is seeing it but not letting me use it. Here is my
/etc/fstab file

=== Begin Paste ===
/dev/hdc3 / reiserfs
defaults 1 1

/dev/hda1 /windows/C vfat
users,gid=users,umask=0002,iocharset=iso8859-1,code=437 0 0

/dev/hdc1 /windows/D ntfs
ro,users,gid=users,umask=0002,nls=iso8859-1 0 0

/dev/hdc2 swap swap
pri=42 0 0

devpts /dev/pts devpts
mode=0620,gid=5 0 0

proc /proc proc
defaults 0 0

usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs
noauto 0 0

/dev/cdrom /media/cdrom auto
ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0

/dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto
noauto,user,sync 0 0
=== End Paste ===

The line breaks were added by myself for readability :) Anyway, any help
would be great. If you need more info just let me know.

Thanks :)

Will
