FreeBSD : Compaq presario v3000 Ricoh card reader


In my previous post on FreeBSD : Compaq Presario V3010AU, the Ricoh SD/MMC card reader attached to my laptop was not functioning on FreeBSD 6.2R. Following the post by Hajimu UMEMOTO on freebsd-mobile mailing list, I’ve tested his driver and able to write on Kingston SD card.

Update :
New driver at http://www.agt.ne.jp/~a-gota/programs/driver/FBSD6.2R/memcard/sdmmc-20070627.tar.gz

    Many thanks for digging this up. It works great for me on my x40’s reader.

    No worries. But I think big “Thank you” should go to Hajimu UMEMOTO for writing the driver.

    Thanks very much for posting this - I now have working the Ricoh SD/MMC cardreader in my ECS 223 notebook.

    The sdmmc driver exposes three sysctls:

    hw.sdshc.wait_after_insertion: 5000
    hw.sdshc.polling_interval: 10
    hw.sdshc.timeout_interval: 100

    I had to adjust the wait_after_insertion delay to 5000 (~ 5 secs) to get an old 32MB Sandisk card to work, and put

    hw.sdshc.wait_after_insertion=5000

    into my /etc/sysctl.conf to ensure the setting is carried over between boots.

    1 sec (1000) delay is good enough for my 256MB Toshiba/Kingston card. Thanks for sharing the info anyway. :)
