I ran across a post on linuxquestions that said for usb cf readers to work you need scsi support. All I did was add SCSI support to the kernel.
let me go ahead and reconect the devices and I will copy the syslog messages.
as someone once upon a time pointed out, the multi-card readers represent a multi-LUN SCSI device, so i added the following to
/etc/modprobe.conf
options scsi_mod max_luns=5 (or however many physical slots)
then, if you need to, rmmod that module, and insmod it again. at that point, the module can handle a multi-LUN device like your card reader. when you insert the reader, /var/log/messages should give you some feedback and, in my case, i can mount my CF card as /dev/sdb1.
