Acer Aspire One Netbook Memory Card Reader Problems - Ubuntu 8.10

[whitey2006]

Hi Guys

I have recently installed Ubuntu 8.10 - Intrepid Ibex on my Acer Aspire One Netbook and i have discovered that both the SD card reader and Multi card reader does not work.

I am using kernel 2.6.27-11-generic. I have tried using an older kernel version also, but the readers still did not work.

Can somebody please tell me how to fix this problem?

Many thanks all

Supposedly its been figured out (or possibly patched in NBR but not desktop for some stupid reason), but nobody ever posts it here. Which would be nice for the rest of us AAO users who don't want to use NBR.
