Acer Aspire One D255E - continuing problems with card reader

[nooby]

Thanks that was very important information.
I have such computer so need to know what works and what not.

Myke. Thanks of your clarification. I have noticed your presented problem.
If you will find or read about working solution with these newer kernels, I am willing to help you with solution. Like compiling some third party kernel module and include it to the distro.

I don't have the expertise to do this, but it might be worth a try for someone who does...

Re: Linux 3.0: broken ums_eneub6250

Hi,

obviously, nobody seems to be interested to work on this bug. Until it's
fixed: There is a workaround to get the device working again with 2.6.39
and 3.0 - just remove the unusable ums-eneub6250.ko and replace it with
the complete old and fine keucr-module - staging but working

I am too lazy to test it but such info is very important
and much appreciated by us who owns that hardware.

I have both a D250 and one D255E. I only use the first
due to very high fan noise in the newer one having a more
demanding CPU needing bigger fan or higher speed or something.

It is much more noisy and I hate such noise. Sorry offtopic.

anyway it is good to know that one can use the card reader
when one really want to.

FYI - I have an Acer Aspire One ZG5 running Puppy 5.5, earlier than the D250, I loaded the PET and while it did not see the card reader initially, it did after a reboot.

Many thanks, dawnsboy.
