I have a read many other posts on this issue and believe that Ubuntu 12.04 is not even recognizing my SD Card Reader as just that:

  • Computer Model: Metabox (Australian builder of Clevo laptops) / Clevo P150EM
  • OS: Ubuntu 12.04 (64 Bit)
  • CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3720QM CPU @ 2.60GHz
  • HD: 120GB Intel 550/520MB/s SSD

According to the people who built my computer, the specs of the SD Card reader in my comp are as follows:

  • Manufacture: Realtek Semiconduct Corp.
  • Location: PCI bus 3
  • Hardware ID: PCI\Ven_10EC&DEV_5289&SUBSYS_51051558
  • Physical device object name: \Device\NTPNP_PCI0015

Here are the relevant outputs of the following commands run from the terminal:

sudo lshw

Does the unassigned details of these outputs mean that Ubunutu desn't know that the SD Card Reader is one and what do with it? and if so how should I go about fixing it??

Cheers ;)

The solution provided here works:

You can also just open the .deb file in the Software Centre and install it from there which works as well
