4 GB SD cards properly read under Linux

Remember how MacOS X ate my pics? In that post I explained that Linux had problems with >1 GB [[Secure Digital card|Secure Digital cards]].

Well, apparently the problem was in the card reader, not in Linux (or the card itself). I recently acquired a SD card reader on [[eBay]] (actually, one like this one), and with it I can mount and read 2 and 4 GB SD cards without problem.

    Hei! that’s true!
    I have been reading 2Gb SD cards since long time ago without problems in Ubuntu and a cheap (the cheapest) card reader…
    This is what happens with propietary software hardware ;) :P
