If I am understanding correctly, do all these all plug into the card
reader? If it says it is a Generic card reader, Vendor 0x1019,
ProductID 0xc55, Revision 0.00, check out
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=220251 and if this is your
problem, you could use the latest kernel from the Kernel repository for
the 10.2 branch, i.e.
joe@jmorris:~> rpm -q kernel-default
kernel-default-2.6.18.5-181.1
or patch your kernel and rebuild to get a working usbstorage.ko for that
card reader, then just replace it. HTH
