Olympus xd picture card reader problem

Asked by Bob T

Very new to Linux Ubuntu (2 weeks). I have everything working but my digital camera card reader. It is an Olympus
MAUSB-10. It show up in the device manager but when a card is put in the reader nothing happens. I expected an icon on the desktop like the thumb drive. I tried finding it somewhere in the system files but to no avail. I thought it might be in fstab and I could maybe manually mount it somehow.

Thanks for any help in advance.

Assuming it's an external USB one like this:-

http://www.olympus.co.uk/consumer/198_MAUSB-10.htm

Can you do the following:-

Unlplug the USB device.
ALT+F2
dmesg > ~/dmesg1
Plug in the USB adapter (without the card in place)
ALT+F2
dmesg > ~/dmesg2
Plug the memory card into the USB adapter.
ALT+F2
dmesg > ~/dmesg3

You will then have 3 files in your home directory, dmesg1, dmesg2 and dmesg3. Could you paste the difference between them by doing this:-

ALT+F2
diff ~/dmesg1 ~/dmesg2 > ~/diff1
ALT+F2
diff ~/dmesg1 ~/dmesg3 > ~/diff2
ALT+F2
gedit ~/diff1
ALT+F2
gedit ~/diff2

Can you pate the results of the two diffs (diff1 and diff2) here?

Alan,
This is the results from diff 1

> [17179793.128000] usb-storage: probe of 3-2:1.0 failed with error -5

And from diff2

> [17179793.128000] usb-storage: probe of 3-2:1.0 failed with error -5

Apparently the insertion of the media card did nothing different.

I hope this helps,

Thanks,
Bob T

I've just upgraded from Windows XP to Kubuntu Edgy Eft, and I love the transition. I only have one problem. My Aspen ATM-152R Touchscreen monitor will not work for me. I can see video on it and everything on it, but the touchscreen part is non-functional. It hooks up via USB, and it is listed in /dev/input/ts0, but it doesn't actually accept it as an input device. The drivers listed here:

http://www.aspentouchsolutions.com/driver_downloads.php

will not work for me as they are for different distributions. I tried to make them work with Kubuntu, but the headers the touch.ko module is only for 2.4 kernels. I'm on 2.6.10, so it definitely won't work. I really need these drivers for my business. Can someone please help me? Thank you for any assistance.
