Ok, compare with my Dell Inspiron 640m:
02:01.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Ricoh Co Ltd R5C832 IEEE 1394 Controller
02:01.1 Generic system peripheral [0805]: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C822 
SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter (rev 19)
02:01.2 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd Unknown device 0843 (rev 01)
02:01.3 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd R5C592 Memory Stick Bus Host Adapter 
(rev 0a)
02:01.4 System peripheral: Ricoh Co Ltd xD-Picture Card Controller (rev 05)


Same chip as yours.  Now, from dmesg as I insert a 2GB SD card:
mmcblk0: mmc0:0001 SD 1981952KiB
 mmcblk0: p1
SELinux: initialized (dev mmcblk0p1, type vfat), uses genfs_contexts

Mount:
/dev/mmcblk0p1 on /media/KODAK type vfat 
(rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,uhelper=hal,uid=500,utf8,shortname=lower)

In other words, same chip works for me, and the separate MMC/SD portion isn't 
being detected as such, but as that Unknown Device 0843.

I just double checked a few minutes ago just in case a recent update broke 
what has been working for me; I've been using this reader under F7 ever since 
F7 came out. If the memory stick portion worked I'd be really happy, but 
having a working SD that is non-USB is nice.  It even works with SDHC cards 
(I have a 4GB card I use very frequently for audio interchange between two 
systems; I do professional audio production, and use one box to record and my 
laptop for certain editing functions with ardour and others).

Now, I am using KDE; shouldn't matter, though.
