Why does Ubuntu not detect my SD card?

I can't mount my SD card. I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on an Asus K55V (Intel), and I have a sd card slot, but Ubuntu doesn't detect when I put a SD card in the slot. Not Ubuntu nor other program.

Run these commands from a command prompt:

sudo modprobe -r r852

sudo modprobe -r sdhci_pci

sudo modprobe r852

sudo modprobe sdhci_pci

This uses modprobe to unload and reload the device drivers (in this case kernel modules) to automatically detect the SD card into the kernel.

Source codes

r852 driver: Ricoh 85xx xD/smartmedia card reader driver

sdhci_pci driver: Secure Digital Host Controller Interface PCI driver
