Has anyone managed to get a USB flashcard reader to work on a linux box? (I'm running the 2.2.16 kernel with USB backport from Redhat.) I have a whole bunch of USB devices in /dev/usb, but I don't totally follow what they are. (/dev/dc2xx0 looks like a digital camera.) Anyway, I tried accessing the reader with ks (part of the opendis package for accessing kodak cameras) and it gave me a general "can't access that device" error. (Not the error that you get from a mode 600 device, the one you get where there's no device behind the entry in /dev.) Anyway, it's not clear to me that any flashcard reader should be different than any other flashcard reader, but it's not clear to me what device to call it so that it works. BTW, I just want to be able to download and erase files on the card. I don't care about the fancy mount-as-file-system stuff, although that would be a solution that would work.
