A bad card? Or it needs to be reformatted maybe?

I can connect to my camera when cabled via USB and read and write the SD Card using Digikam, so I am guessing that the card is OK. I cannot access the card via the card reader nor can I access it in the camera using Konq, only Digikam. I have tried going to Root and changing the permissions but it won't even allow changes in Root -- so I deleted references to it where I saw them in Konq.

Doc, What messages are you getting in /var/log/messages when you insert the card? The easiest way to do this is to ctrl-alt-f10 and you get a live reading of system messages. Go to the message terminal and insert your card. You should get something there when trying to mount it that might give you or us more of a clue. Also, you haven't updated "hotplug" lately have you by doing an online update? If you have the -32.22 build installed, go back to the version on your 9.1 discs to see if that helps.

Sorry, thought you knew how to maneuver around your terminal screens. :o) Here's a list: ctrl-alt-F1-F6 gives you your basic text terminals ctrl-alt-F7 or F8 moves you between your two X sessions with F7 being your main. ctrl-alt-F10 to your message screen So it seems it's not mounting the device and that would indicate you might have the bad hotplug version, did you check that?

ctrl-alt-f7 gets you back to your x-server, where kde/gnome is running. ctrl-alt-f1, ctrl-alt-f2, ... ctrl-alt-f6 gets you to text consoles, with ctrl-alt-f1 being the one which you did see when booting, before it switched you to ctrl-alt-f7 to let you login into kde HTH, Matt
Branching to the Alt-F10 stuff, I cannot return to the X session after executing an Alt-F10, or alt-F1. I get an "input not supported" graphic text box. I assume this is generated by my LCD screen, but I am not sure. Also, is there a command line command to reenter en existing x session, other than Alt-F7? tia, John On Friday 23 July 2004 20:33, Matt T. wrote:

John, You should be able to get back to your main screen with either a ctrl-alt-F7 or F8 from any of the text terminal screens. Another user mentioned alt-F6 too, but I've never tried that to test. ;o) If you can't seem to return to your main X session, but can get to tty1-6(ctrl-alt-F1-F6), then you can just issue init 3 then init 5 as root to restart your login.

Sorry to bump in here but I got a problem with a SD card as well. The card reader won't mount ( was allright in 9.0). I'm using ( according to Yast) hotplug 0.44.32.

Bill, Have you took a look on your message screen when inserting the card or card reader? Unplug the entire reader from your USB and then replug it, with the card already inserted in the reader, to your computer. Make sure you are on the message screen before you do to watch what response you get. That should tell you something. Your hotplug looks ok and appears to be the build SuSE 9.1 installed.

Ok, how many usb devices do you have connected? Is this an external card reader? Since you are coming up "sdc" and mine is usually "sdb", I going to assume you have a couple other usb devices connected? Have you tried removing something and putting the card reader in that usb connector? Have you connected up the card reader, with card and booted the computer with it? Do the other usb devices work reliably? Have you tried the card reader on another computer? Sorry for all the questions, but I'm trying to think of everything you might try.

=========
Just to say that the cardreader worked perfect in 9.0 and also after I upgraded to 9.1. It stopped working when I had to do a clean install of 9.1 because of kernel problems.
Ok, how many usb devices do you have connected? Is this an external card reader?
I have 2 USB ports One has a connection with an USB printer. The other one is connected to a USB hub with 4 ports. The card reader is connected to the hub. This hub also connects my external (back up) drive, which works OK.
Since you are coming up "sdc" and mine is usually "sdb", I going to assume you have a couple other usb devices connected? Have you tried removing something and putting the card reader in that usb connector?
I removed the hub connection and connected the reader straight to the USB port but with the same result as I reported before. The only difference sdc became sdb.
Have you connected up the card reader, with card and booted the computer with it?
This doesn't work. The BIOS doesn't like this reader :-( The BIOS hangs and computer won't start. This was the case in 9.0 as well. Thanks for your help. -- Greetings from /bill at 169 west , 19 south. Disclaimer: Any errors in spelling, tact, or fact are transmission errors."

I'm not sure if it was on this list or another one , but someone suggested that Digikam was working. I NEVER could get my camara working with SUSE but I just tried Digikam and now it recognizes my camera and the photo's show up.

Bill, The card reader could have actually gone bad? Have you checked it on another machine? I have one user here that had the same problem under 9.0 with a reader, lock up the boot process, etc. and it turned out the reader had gone bad anyway. From what I have seen and experienced though, the card readers are excellent when working and certainly save battery power versus using the camera, but they also have their own set of problems. :o) Lee -- --- KMail v1.6.2 --- SuSE Linux Pro v9.1 --- Registered Linux User #225206 On any other day, that might seem strange...
