Gee! These Aren't Roasted!
i can't write or erase anything in my SD cards anymore! (But can do it using my camera)
I have read in other threads and other forums, it may be a kernel bug... ¿Somebody knows something about it?
(they are FAT32, so i suppose "changing the permissions" wouldn't help)

bleeeh-ho!
(I used my camera -Nikon D80- to format the SD Cards. They still are mounted as read-only in both Ubuntu and Windows XP. They just stopped working normal last week)

1) What Ubuntu version are you using?
2) Does the card have a lock on it?

Actually I just ran into this as well... so I took the card out of a generic SD card reader, and put in another (kingston) and it became rw in the kinston card reader... go figure. I have had this happen before and just resorted to reformatting the card, but fortunately I tried this first this time around.

Nope. They ALL(3 of them) have the lock off. (different brand: PNY, Verbatim and something called pq1)

Re: all my SD cards are mounted as READ-ONLY
news:
I took the SD cards to work. Used an USB Card Reader to check them in Windows XP first. No issues whatsoever. I could write, copy, delete all i wanted, and format them again. Then i mount them in Xubuntu (thru VMWare)
No write/read problems.
I came home. I mount them with my Card Reader.
Read-Only again. (you can see the ro option in properties)
Then i plugged an MemoryStick card i had in one of my cameras.
Write enabled on that one. Everything OK. (rw shows up in properties)
¿What the hell is wrong with my card reader? ¿Do i need to manually change the SD device default mount options? ¿Why suddendly those mount options changed themselves?

got me a new'n'smaller multicard reader for 5 euros. Works better but now i have 1 instead of 3 front-panel USB ports.
The cards work fine, so i suppose my problem was cheap hardware.
