Thanks for all the tips, including the suggestion that it might not read
sdhc cards. I can't make anything work, and there is no indication in
dmesg or anywhere else I can find that the plugging in of the card is
seen. Yet the moment I load it into my ubuntu netbook, it works
perfectly. I have to assume the hardware is broken.
