I did the following:
[root@localhost codecs]# modprobe usb-storage [root@localhost codecs]# lsmod | grep ^usb_storage usb_storage 61193 0 [root@localhost codecs]#
And now when I plug in the card reader, I can hear the hard drive make some noises indicating that some kind of response is happening.
However, when I put a card into the card reader, nothing happens. I tried putting the card in after connecting the USB cable, and also after, just for experiments sake. Still, nothing happens.
