JUST the last couple weeks experienced this very thing. Upgraded to...
a secondhand 2008 digital camera that I could now use 16gb SDHC. DEJA
VU, went through the whole deal it sounds like is reported here of not
being able to access the card anywhere.
Exactly as reported here, no file nor graphics program worked and I
went through every single one I could find (on Knoppix). Tried lsusb,
probably because of seeing it referenced maybe even on this listserv.
After seeing the card reader hardware was being recognized and knowing
the old reader worked great with 2gb but apparently not 16gb, it hit
that maybe the old card reader couldn't handle the larger SDHC. BINGO.
Kid you not, new product arrived TODAY and.... wait for it, here it
comes >>> IT WORKS! :)
BUT... Still ran into glitches.. Am on a ~ten year old laptop (Toshiba
Satellite P25-S609) using a little bit older Knoppix 6.4.3 Live DVD.
Knoppix would hang bad (sit and spin without loading) on reboot if the
new product was in a recently acquired USB 4-port hub but Knoppix
loads as normal if new card reader is given its own dedicated USB port
it doesn't have to share with any other hardware...
