Card reader only works if booted with card in

01-03-2008, 03:49 AM

My card reader works if an SD card is inserted when the system is
booted. If the card is inserted after the system is already booted,
/dev/mmcblk0 never appears. Is there any way to get the running
system to check for a card in the slot?

Thanks! I just enabled it and now I can access an SD card inserted into
a Garmin nüvi GPS navigator!

Thank you very, very much. I really wanted to be able to use my
blackberry without going into (ugh, hate it) windoze, and now I can!
Props, Volker Armin. I _really_ appreciate it.
