Memory stick reader Ricoh R5C592 supported?




Folks,


my Dell Inspiron 6400 laptop has both a Ricoh R5C822 host adapter (for SD,
MMC, etc.) and a Ricoh R5C592 host adapter for memory sticks.

While the former works just fine, it seems to me that the latter hasn't any
support. Indeed, inserting a Sony MSA-128A memory stick causes no reaction
whatsoever. Searching with google, I haven't found anything related to this
chip; looking into the kernel source code wasn't successful either.

Can you please shed some light on the current situation? I'm using kernel
2.6.20.
