| pleia2 | (actually wrapping up in a few minutesZ) | 02:42 |
| philipballew | can anyone help with installing a driver into the kernel? | 04:26 |
| seidos | philipballew: hey how's it going? i can try | 04:27 |
| philipballew | well i just bought a sd card and come to find out my sd card doesnt work out of the box but my digging lead me here | 04:28 |
| philipballew | https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=429416&action=edit | 04:28 |
| philipballew | i think this is what i need | 04:28 |
| seidos | how funny, my sd card reader doesn't work either | 04:29 |
| seidos | it used to | 04:29 |
| seidos | i think the hardware may have failed | 04:29 |
| philipballew | thats ironic. perhaps someone attacked all linux users computers | 04:30 |
| seidos | philipballew: you can do lscpi, find your card reader, then search for the module you need. and, do sudo lshw to check if a driver is already loaded | 04:30 |
| seidos | philipballew: that's an interesting evaluation | 04:30 |
| seidos | maybe an sd card reading manufacturer :P | 04:30 |
| philipballew | they think we need to go to windows!!!!! | 04:31 |
| seidos | it's not what you know though, it's what you can prove! | 04:31 |
| seidos | for some reason, i feel like watching a star wars flick. revenge of the sith is probably my favorite now. | 04:32 |
| seidos | anyway, good luck getting your card reader working philipballew. there may not be a decent enough driver to get it going, though | 04:33 |
| akk | An SD card generally doesn't require a driver -- it's the reader that requires a driver. | 04:33 |
| akk | What reader are you using? | 04:33 |
| philipballew | alright. if i cant figure it out ill post here again and someone will figure it out if i dont | 04:34 |
| seidos | philipballew: may i ask why you need the sd card? did you get a camera or something? | 04:35 |
| seidos | maybe someone wants everybody to use usb memory sticks | 04:35 |
| akk | A separate USB SD card reader is typically just the same as a USB stick ... a generic USB-storate device. | 04:36 |
| philipballew | i am gonna put by boot loader on it and make my laptop more secure | 04:36 |
| akk | storage | 04:36 |
| akk | but if you're trying to read it from a built-in drive on a laptop, sometimes those use screwy drivers. | 04:36 |
| seidos | perhaps an external usb card reader, my internal usb card reader uses the pci bus i'm pretty sure | 04:37 |
| seidos | indeed it does | 04:37 |
| seidos | philipballew: hey, i'm using the same sdhci-pci driver. do lsmod | grep sdhci-pci to see if it's loaded (though if it shows up in lshw i'm pretty sure it already is) | 04:39 |
| akk | A lot of the common SD readers built in to laptops use a TI chip that works, but only sort of -- like it can't survive a suspend | 04:39 |
| akk | and the OS may lock up if you try to suspend with the SD card mounted, or might refuse to suspend. | 04:39 |
| seidos | ah, well the sd card reader is dead now | 04:40 |
| seidos | i wasn't able to wake it up last time i had an sd card to play with | 04:40 |
| philipballew | there cool for music and their small i find | 04:42 |
| akk | I was trying to use mine for that, but once I found out I couldn't suspend, I moved the music to a USB stick instead. | 04:43 |
| seidos | usb sticks work for me. they are rock solid. and they can be used to boot from. sd card on pci bus, not so sure | 04:45 |
| philipballew | the kernal says its loaded. i probably have a different chipset then you | 04:45 |
| seidos | what does lshw say philipballew ? | 04:46 |
| MarkDude | akk informative post on your blog. Interesting to see devs remove stuff without giving a new way to do it | 04:47 |
| seidos | this is mine: product: R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter | 04:47 |
| seidos | vendor: Ricoh Co Ltd | 04:47 |
| seidos | hey MarkDude | 04:47 |
| akk | MarkDude: They do that pretty often, sadly. | 04:47 |
| MarkDude | I remember lurnin' all those dpkg ways to fix video- in time for it to be removed | 04:49 |
| MarkDude | hello seidos | 04:49 |
| philipballew | dont you mean lspci? | 04:50 |
| seidos | philipballew: either way i think | 04:50 |
| seidos | i just happened to have lshw still up | 04:50 |
| philipballew | 06:00.0 SD Host controller: Ricoh Co Ltd Device e822 (rev ff) (prog-if ff) | 04:51 |
| philipballew | !!! Unknown header type 7f | 04:51 |
| philipballew | Kernel driver in use: sdhci-pci | 04:51 |
| philipballew | Kernel modules: sdhci-pci | 04:51 |
| Eureka | philipballew: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 04:51 |
| seidos | lol weird, why did Eureka do that | 05:07 |
| seidos | curioser and curioser | 05:07 |
| seidos | curious too | 05:07 |
| philipballew | seemes weird! | 05:07 |
| seidos | philipballew: i suspect our devices need a specific driver to function properly | 05:07 |
| seidos | if you figure out how to write one, let me know | 05:08 |
| philipballew | schools keepin my to busy | 05:08 |
| philipballew | but its easter break now | 05:08 |
| philipballew | im about to drive to sac all night | 05:08 |
| seidos | why are you going to sac? | 05:12 |
| seidos | political business? | 05:12 |
| seidos | philipballew: ^ | 05:12 |
| philipballew | i live there | 05:13 |
| philipballew | kinda | 05:13 |
| philipballew | well... when im not in school | 05:13 |
| philipballew | sorry for delay, im packin | 05:13 |
| seidos | no worries | 05:14 |
| akk | I wish the loco pages could learn to recognize launchpad, so logging in didn't always get the "you are trying to sign in from an unrecognized service" confirmation screen. | 17:15 |
| pleia2 | it's probably on the launchpad side (which can be difficult to work with), but is there a loco directory bug about it? | 17:19 |
| iheartubuntu | Epic FAIL - Sergio Ramos of Real Madrid drops the trophy... http://youtu.be/tqU0BK4uxHM | 17:19 |
| akk | I don't see a bug if I search for launchpad. | 17:25 |
| * akk files one | 17:26 | |
| akk | filed, 768441 | 17:30 |
| pleia2 | :) | 17:37 |
| kdub | http://partmaps.org/era/unix/guis.txt | 23:39 |
| akk | kdub: hallelujah brother! :) | 23:48 |
| kdub | i'm learning all sorts of fun things on the old usenet posts | 23:48 |
| akk | That way lies madness! (usenet) | 23:48 |
| kdub | haha, thanks for heading me off at the pass then, akk | 23:49 |
| akk | wait, did I say madness was bad? :) | 23:49 |
| sn9 | is badness mad? | 23:49 |
| kdub | heh guess you didnt say that akk. its almost like reading throguh the unix sage's writings of old | 23:51 |
