Can't do it, and probably won't be able to. And I'm assuming you mean the MemoryStick slot, not the SD card slot.
The MemoryStick slots on Vaios are from Ricoh, and they've not been cooperative with the Linux community, so, drivers for MemoryStick slots aren't going to be available anytime soon. This has to do with the fact that MemorySticks have "Magic Gate" (i.e. copy protection), which Windows gladly supports, but Linux doesn't.
