[Bug 669343] [NEW] [staging] phison Module broken: ExpressCard SSD not usable

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Description:	Ubuntu 10.10
Release:	10.10

I have been using a Verbatim 32GB SSD ExpressCard that is attached via PCIe as a IDE drive.
The card works out of the box in lucid but in maverick dmesg just throws a stack trace. 
Shutdown and reboot are blocked until the card is removed.

The card needs the "phison" module.

Ubuntu lucid amd64 (good)

Then the partitions can be mounted - all fine,

With maverick the output is rather long, the dmesg paste can be found here:

Seems to be a regression? :-/
