I re-booted and tried again several times on both machines. Initially
there was nothing in dmesg. Then after a couple of tries I got dmesg
saying that it detected it. On the 32-bit machine Nautilus actually
mounted the SD card successfully, but on the 64-bit machine Nautilus
complained about some errors (dmesg showed errors too) and would not
mount it. However, I was able to mount the SD card by using "Disk
utility".

This is not perfect, but should do for now.

Thanks,
