Meh, probably don't have support.

Unplug it, plug it, and then in konsole
dmesg

These are your system messages. Look for evidence at the end that it found a new USB device and probably named it sdb1 or ~such.

If not there,
lspci

and tell us specifically what kind of MMC controller you have.

Unplug it, wait a few seconds, replug it. Then open a terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal), then give the following commands and post the output here.
dmesg | tail
