SD slot on IBM X40

SD slot on IBM X40

[Jeff Chua]

I've visited all the posting on linux laptop website and it seems that 
it's no possible to get the build-in SD slot to work under linux.

It seems all the new notebooks are shipped with SD as standard (Toshiba, 
IBM at least), and I wonder whether anyone is working on this?


Thanks,
Jeff

Hi Jeff,

I have also an SD- (and some other) card reader in my notebook.
These are working as standard usb-storage devices.
So you just do
# modprobe usb-storage
# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sd-card
(replace /dev/sda1 with your appropriate device and /mnt/sd-card with an 
existing mountpoint).

Greets,

Manuel
