Mounting Compact flash attached to USB card reader makes it unreadable.
Hi all,
Debian testing, 3.11-2-amd64 kernel.
I got a all-in-one USB card reader to read a camera's compact flash.
The reader works fine, and the device appears. However if mounted (and
then unmounted) the card becomes unreadable by both the camera (which
reports a card error) and Debian.
There is no problem if the card is inserted, but _not mounted_, and then
removed.
I tried mount/unmount by using Thunar (XFCE) 'Mount and Open' and then
'eject' option as well as straight mount/umount commands.
In both cases the device is perfectly readable while mounted.
I also tried mounting and then removing the card (without unmounting)
with the same problematic result.
See here pasted dmesg 'insert, mount, unmount, remove' cycle:
http://paste.debian.net/72371/
Only outstanding message I can see is:
usb 3-1: device not accepting address 93, error -71
But have no clue.
Any suggestions and pointers (possibly also where to file a bug if any)
appreciated.
Lorenzo.
