Ok, lets try to compile the kernel modules into the kernel. According to your lspci, your motherboard has ATI IDE controller:
| Code: | | 05:09.0 CardBus bridge: Texas Instruments PCIxx21/x515 Cardbus Controller |
Interestingly your sdcard reader appears to be made by Texas Instruments"
| Code: | 05:09.2 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller
05:09.3 Mass storage controller: Texas Instruments PCIxx21 Integrated FlashMedia Controller
05:09.4 SD Host controller: Texas Instruments PCI6411/6421/6611/6621/7411/7421/7611/7621 Secure Digital Controller |
1) Run
| Code: | | genkernel --install --bootloader=grub --kernel-config=/usr/src/config --menuconfig all |
2) Go to
| Code: | | Device Drivers ---> <*> ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support ---> |
3) Go to
| Code: | | < > ATI IXP chipset IDE support |
And press space twice (until you see a *)
4) Reboot in your r7 kernel

I finally got it recognized also got my /etc/fstab and mount piint up for my device. I think i figured out why it doesnt work on the other kernel though.. On boot I get:
| Code: |
failed to load mmc_block
|
In a terminal I also get:
| Code: |
V2570nr craig # modprobe mmc_block
FATAL: Module mmc_block not found.
|
Hope you can help me out maybe get it working in my good kernel, there are too many things not working in the new kernel we compiled, that I cant remember how I got working, it has been a long 3 weeks to get to where my system is at. crad reader only thing holding me back at this point. I really appreciate all your help, hopefully it will stay working on the kernel we compiled. I would like to have t supported under my r8 kernel though. Let me know what you all think about the code I just posted! |

I am glad that at least we are progressing  In order to use your (working) r8 kernel you have to select it again with eselect. Have you done that?
| Code: | eselect kernel list
eselect kernel set 2 |

Got it working, partially...
I edited /etc/conf.d/local.start to look like:
| Code: |
# /etc/conf.d/local.start
# This is a good place to load any misc programs
# on startup (use &>/dev/null to hide output)
#/home/craig/scripts/wireless-connect.sh
setpci -s 05:09.3 4c.b=0x02
|
After setting pci to the correct hardware address I now get the following in dmesg|tail before card insert:
| Code: |
V2570nr craig # dmesg|tail
sdhci:slot1: Will use DMA mode even though HW doesn't fully claim to support it.
mmc1: SDHCI at 0xc0209000 irq 17 DMA
sdhci:slot2: Will use DMA mode even though HW doesn't fully claim to support it.
mmc2: SDHCI at 0xc0208400 irq 17 DMA
EXT3 FS on hda3, internal journal
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:14.5[B] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17
Adding 4120664k swap on /dev/hda2. Priority:-1 extents:1 across:4120664k
NET: Registered protocol family 10
lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions
wlan0: no IPv6 routers present
|
After card insert:
| Code: |
V2570nr craig # dmesg|tail
mmc2: SDHCI at 0xc0208400 irq 17 DMA
EXT3 FS on hda3, internal journal
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:14.5[B] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17
Adding 4120664k swap on /dev/hda2. Priority:-1 extents:1 across:4120664k
NET: Registered protocol family 10
lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions
wlan0: no IPv6 routers present
mmc2: new SD card at address a95c
mmcblk0: mmc2:a95c SD064 60928KiB
mmcblk0: p1
|
So I now then..
| Code: |
# su
# mkdir /mnt/SD
# nano -w /etc/fstab
|
Then added this line to /etc/fstab:
| Code: |
/dev/mmcblk0p1 /mnt/SD vfat noauto,user,rw,umask=000 0 0
|
As far as I kow this hsould allow read and write both to all users. (?)
However, the card is recognized and I can transfer files through a terminal, but the /dev/mmcblk0p1 does not show up anywhere in konqueror. I would prefer to be able to use konqueror to transfer the files. Making progress in leaps in bounds. Any help appreciated! Thanks in advance!
N.B. - Aniruddha, this appears to happen in both kernels, meaning I cannot see the device in konqueror, so with both kernels, we have same result, but progress is there. |

Hmm ok, I am afraid I am out of ideas. One more tip; try to be more descriptive in you title e.g. "Problems configuring card reader in Gentoo" or "Can't load module mmc_block".
