SD card isn't recognized

#1

Hi there everybody,

I’m a complete ubuntu newbie and don’t know anything…
so I got Ubunutu mate with a new Asus ultrabook and now the SD slot isn’t working. I’ve already googled and installed a driver for my cardreader but it still won’t work.
lspci says
02:00.0 Unassigned class [ff00]: Alcor Micro AU6601 PCI-E Flash card reader controller
so i guess the system is in any way connected to the reader?
would be nice if anyone could help me :slight_smile:

Hi Lenz,

did you meanwhile manage to install the Alcor Micro AU6601 PCI-E Flash card reader controller for Linux?
And where did you find the driver files (maybe as a C-Project)?

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

Is your ultrabook processor an Intel Atom ?

Maybe it needs manual mount…
First find usb’s path in /dev and
sudo mount /dev/whatyoufind /mnt
I hope it work
