I must correct my previous email: the device does not shows up ... in less than 15 seconds, that may be considered as normal but that's more than other devices I plugged in until now. But, from my last tests, the real problem seems to be that the device doesn't get removed from /dev and /sys/block after a physical removal. That's what wrongly brought me to my 3rd diagnostic in my previous email. I guess that's related to the card reader driver, so... excuse me for the noise. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-hotplug" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
