I've noticed that many USB card readers are non-functional under Linux; according to the kernel developers, it's because relatively few of them implement the USB removable block storage class (protocol) correctly. While there are lots of expensive card readers that work with Linux, finding cheap ones is challenging.
I've yet to see a card reader that *didn't* work on my linux box. Are you using a new enough linux (like Fedora or Ubuntu instead of years-behind RHEL/CentOS)?
Ya, the uber-cheap ones seem to work well. There's a cool mini 28-in-1 one I can get in for around $6. Your $2 is even better.
