Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

Very weird and blocking bug.

Acer TM 6593G

Step to reproduce:
1) Insert a SD card in the internal card reader.
2) The action-window pop up on the screen asking what to use with the card mounted (Open with Shotwell, Open Folder etc).
3) Select Open Folder from the dropdown list.
4) it starts to mount/unmount randomly for few times, and a grey area come up in the middle of the screen on the foreground, covering all stuff put over it (see screenshot). It's impossible to move away/delete/close.
5) A mount error appear "Error mounting: mount: /devmmcblk0p1: can't read superblock",
6) Then I cannot work on the desktop, like opening folder like "Examples", showing desktop right-click menu or closing a nautilus window opened in Places->Home for example. The panel menus instead work correctly, I can click on them.
7) I tried to connect via 3G Internet Key to report the problem, I can established a connection but I can't connect to a site using firefox (it stucks on Looking up www.etc.....")

The only way to make things work is to log out and in again. (then 3g connection works again).

Hi Sergio,

If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

I suspect also that this card reader needs SDHC 3.0 support which was not yet available on maverick/2.6.35 kernel, but is now on latest upstream kernel.

If after you test latest upstream kernel as in comment #28 it works, please test the kernel I provided in https://launchpad.net/~herton/+archive/bug657316 (you will have to "sudo apt-get install linux-image-2.6.35-26-generic" after adding the repository, or you can manually download and install proper deb found on http://ppa.launchpad.net/herton/bug657316/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/ - you may also need to install manually if you have a newer kernel version installed on maverick)

No answer, and also Maverick is now not suported anymore (end of life), setting linux task to invalid.
