Hi, I’m not sure if SanDisk is aware of this, but there’s a mass bug across all Linux distributions right now which prevents any SanDisk Extreme Pro card from being recognized by Linux.
Linux replies with the messege " error -110 whilst initialising SD card" to brand new SanDisk cards, but works fine with other cards.
I’m running Linux Debian 10 on a Thinkpad x270 which supports SDXC with Linux kernel 4.19.0-4 -amd64.
Here are links to recent cases of people reporting that SanDisk Extreme Pro cards fail to work on Linux of various distributions:
Arch :
Ubuntu :
Mint :
Debian :
- 22 April 2019 - This is my own case.
Fedora :
On the 12th of February Ubuntu case a Linux kernel maintainer, Ulf Hansson, replied:
Unfortunate that's one of the mmc/sd drivers that would appreciate some more active maintainer/developer.
So perhaps this issue could be forwarded upwards to SanDisk so they’d send a patch to the Linux kernel in order to fix this bug and let us Linux users enjoy SanDisk’s SDXC cards too without being forced to use a USB adapter or hosting Windows on a VM?
