After be one of the 8 persons with the wifi chip problem, now the rma that i got have the second slot without work. I am very lucky seems. :p


I checked all the sd cards i have at home, and all are working in the first slot, but any one in the second.


When i put a card in the second, the led turn on for a very very sort time, compared to the first slot. dmesg dont register any event about the second slot...


I was looking but i didnt found anything that solve this... maybe i missed something, maybe, again... it is a hardware problem... (i really hope all these problems are paid by board company)

I'm assuming the SD cards you're using work just fine on your PC or everywhere else?
of course, they work fine in my laptop, and in the slot 1 too.


the strange thing is that the led turn on, ok, just for a second, and less time that the first slot, but it turn on...


is it possible to make a full reflash?, cause seems that the normal one just reinstall some stuff... and it could help?
 
did you try to compile any driver from a more recent kernel? 2nd slot doesn't work from 2.6.34 iirc.


From my experience, inserting the card and pushing it very slowly (almost stopping for a couple of seconds) worked for me


leaving the battery out for a few minutes or a full reflash might help


the problem happen since the first time i turned on. I bought 2 cards, and the first was ok, but the second didnt recognize... then i swaped them, and the second again didnt work, but the first yes... so i guess it was not the problem of the card (later i tryed with others, and always the same)


i reflashed already, but didnt help, how i can reinstall everything?, just in case there were any problem in the kernel :S cause the led turn on for moment... so i want to think it is not a problem of hardware, again.


I just checked and it have the 2.6.27.46-omap1
