| [15:57] <luis_1234> Hello! Please let me know if you plan to support more Ricoh Memory card readers in the next kernel version. I have an Asus laptop (A6500) and those card readers (Manufacturer : Ricoh) do not work with Ubuntu. | |
| [15:58] <luis_1234> I would have same question with future webcam support. | |
| [16:01] <maks_> luis_1234: what is upstream status of those? | |
| [16:02] <luis_1234> What is an upstream status? | |
| [16:02] <luis_1234> How can I check that? | |
| [16:03] <maks_> fixed in newer kernel merged in -mm discussed in sublist.. | |
| [16:04] <luis_1234> exuse me but I ask first time here I do not know what is -mm discussed sublist | |
| [16:05] <luis_1234> Do you have a website where I can check which hardwares you support in the next ubuntu kernel? | |
| [16:05] <maks_> boot it | |
| [16:05] <maks_> same goes with -mm kernel | |
| [16:06] <luis_1234> thanks | |
| [16:06] <maks_> otherwise check lspci output against driver | |
| [16:07] <luis_1234> I tried everything, I also read that there is a project on sourceforge.net to support Ricoh Card readers in notebooks | |
| [16:07] <luis_1234> but that project does not support mine yet. | |
| [16:07] <amitk> luis_1234: is there _any_ driver out there that supports your card reader? | |
| [16:07] <luis_1234> NO | |
| [16:08] <luis_1234> I mean none for any Linux | |
| [16:08] <luis_1234> I would just like to know if you plan to support more of those Ricoh memory card readers or you do not plan. | |
| [16:09] <maks_> any is a bold statement for a noob | |
| [16:09] <amitk> in that case, Ubuntu will not be able to get the hardware working. You should write to ricoh about providing a driver or providing kernel developers with specs to write one. | |
| [16:09] <luis_1234> ok, thank you. | |
| [16:10] <luis_1234> Have a nice day! | |
| [16:10] <amitk> and based on your assertion, no Linux distribution will be able to get it working | |
| [19:04] <Kano> hi, when will be rc7 synced? | |
| [21:38] <lamont> rtg: I'll let you decide what to do with the hug-day mail blocked in kernel-team | |
| [21:38] * lamont runs out the door for a bit | |
