Centrino duo, card reader and Linux

Hi,

I have a Centrino Duo notebook which has an embedded card reader (for memory 
sticks, SD cards, XD cards, etc.). No card inserted in the reader is detected 
by Fedora. I was hoping that the new F7 kernel would support it, but the 
reader is still dead after the upgrade.
lspci shows:

SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter (rev 19)
05:03.2 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd Unknown device 0843 (rev 01)

(rev 0a)
05:03.4 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd xD-Picture Card Controller (rev 05)

Is there anything I can do to get this device working? Or do I have to wait 
for a kernel that supports it?

Thanks,

Marcelo
