Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.17
Asus V6J laptop with this card reader:
Class 0805: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C822 SD/SDIO/

According to the above thread, this has been fixed in kernel 2.6.18
Please include the patch in the edgy kernel.
In Dapper, the card is not recognized, with a bunch of errors in dmesg but the system does not freeze.
Confirmed on Dell XPS M1710, and 2Gb SD card.
