    Hi and Welcome !

    Insert the card and execute this in Terminal :
    Code:
    tail -s 3 -f /var/log/messages
    Post output here.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    Hi devils,

    I executed
    tail -s 3 -f /var/log/messages first and then i inserted the card and again executed
    the tail -s 3 -f /var/log/messages command.

    But i did not get any new messages.

    I am really got stuck. help will be appreciated.
