Hardware discovery/configuration log can be read by running dmesg. It has been my go-to when in similar situations.

Our dmidecode outputs are very similar with my other HP , they are ok , however on my both HPs ; with lspci it shows "SD Host controller" ...

i.e.

Code: Select all

06:06.4 SD Host controller: Texas Instruments PCI6411/6421/6611/6621/7411/7421/7611/7621 Secure Digital Controller

Code: Select all

04:00.2 SD Host controller: JMicron Technology Corp. Standard SD Host Controller
Also from Menu : "System Profiler and Benchmark" => Devices -> "PCI Devices" ..

same info is present..


But .. since your lspci doesn't show anything related to such a controller ... maybe there's something loose inside...
