    ive been trying to get my internal card reader to work on aa1 532 have not been succsesful thinking about trying another distro that it would work out of the box does anyone know of another linux distro that the internal card reader works out of the box on acer 532.

    Ive also read thata ID 0cf2:6250 ENE Technology, Inc. has no linux support ,i see this when i run lsusb it lists the card reader but does not support it,no drivers for it may only work in windows so let me know if there are drivers for this and if there is a work around thanks.

    I have an Acer Aspire One D260 with this card reader.
    There is no driver for it as yet, see
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... bug/633852
    and
    https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport ... s/Netbooks
    Other distributions have the same problem with no driver
    It may be some time before a volunteer writes the driver, in the mean time may I suggest using a camera or card reader or dual boot.
