# RTS5129/RTS5139

## Overview

This is a temporary fix for RTS5129/RTS5139 USB MMC card reader on Linux 3.16+ kernels.

This ocurred during a transition from ```3.15``` to ```3.16``` kernel, as a result of the ```staging/rts5139``` driver (which worked with the RTS5129/RTS5139) being replaced by the newer ```rtsx``` driver (which does not work with the RTS5129/RTS5139). This project reverts back to the old drivers as a temporary measure to get things up and running again.
