Texas Instruments 5-in1 card reader
 

hello....
i am running Ubuntu gusty kernel 2.6.22-14-generic on a toshiba satellite p-105. I am having a little trouble getting my card reader to work, i only use MS pro and when i put it in the light flashes but it wont auto mount and i dont know how to mount it manually (didnt really try). I looked at BerliOS but as far as i can see my kernel is not supported. I also have read the Fiesty had the TI firmware module built into the kernel but gusty does not (as far as i can see). So does anyone have any idea on how to get this to work? thanks in advance for the help! :)

anyone? please

Just see if anything is already configured try this.
Reboot the machine.
Once up and logged in open a terminal console.
plugin your card
wait 15 secs
type this command ' dmesg '

Does the last ten or so lines show anything like sg or sd device?

here is what i got with dmesg...this is the last few lines that are relevant.

[ 3869.096000] tifm_core: MemoryStick card detected in socket 0:0
