Subject: medion multi flash module not working
Date: Mon, 03 Jan 2005 12:42:35 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <crbecp$rn7$1@sea.gmane.org> (raw)
I'm running a debian testing/unstable mix based on a de-mepis'd mepis
with udev 0.050.
I have a "built-in" medion combined SD/MMS/SmartMedia/Compact-Flash
device that is not properly recognized. The module is usb based and has
4 slots, and under windows a flash device can be read in each slot at
the same time.
Before I installed udev (as a consequence of gnome-volume manager) this
worked fine as various /dev/sd?? nodes, but with udev I had various
problems.
The first problem was that every second a raft of errors regarding
reading the partition table on /dev/ub/a (or /dev/uba as it actually
was), and this error was written every second to the console and could
not be silenced even by inserting a card into one of the slots.
I added this rule:
BUS="usb", SYSFS{product}="Medion Flash XL V3.0A*",
NAME{all_partitions}="usbhd"
which stopped the repeated console errors after the first time and
created the set of /dev/ushhd?? numbered device nodes, but as the usb
device is actually 4 removable drives I think it should be making 4 main
block devices not just one.
I'm not sure if udev or hotplug is at fault here but I'd like to report
it properly and help solve the problem.
Sam
