After a bit of messing around I have almost fixed this, thought I'd post to the list in case anybody else would like to get this working with SuSE 9.1
First I installed the kdebase-extras package for KDE 3.3 (upgraded on my system) This got the devices;/ side tab in Konq working but the icons for my card slots were missing
Then I added some lines to fstab
/dev/sdd1 /mnt/usbd vfat noauto,users,rw 0 0 /dev/sdc1 /mnt/usbc vfat noauto,users,rw 0 0 /dev/sde1 /mnt/usbe vfat noauto,users,rw 0 0 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usbb vfat noauto,users,rw 0 0
Each of these relates to a slot on my reader, not quite sure which is which at the moment.
Then I created the directories under /mnt
That gave me a nice set of 4 extra device icons, complete with right click mount/unmount options (and the green arrow to indicated mounted)
Only two problems remain
1. I can mount a SD card by inserting it and double clicking the sdd1 icon. Up pops a window with my cards contents in and all seems well. But if I then unmount it and insert a Memory Stick it complains that no device is found when I click the sde1 icon. However issuing a mount /dev/sde1 mounts the stick correctly.
2. Because it seems impossible to rename the devices under "devices:/" and because I still cant automount on insertion of media I have to remember which device is which slot. Is there any way I can get automount to work ?
