Debian Hardware :: USB Devices Not Working Immediately (HP Envy 17 N120nd)
Feb 5, 2016
I have problem with several usb devices plugged to laptop HP Envy 17 n120nd, new laptop with Skylake. Because of the Skylake I have Debian Testing installed (instead of Windows, hence no dual boot). The problem is as follows. When I plug an usb device such as memory stick, usb storage and wired mouse, none of them are detected, despite the fact that lights of these devices are on (except the mouse as I will explain later).
But when I reboot the laptop, while the usb devices stay plugged in the laptop, then they usually are detected (hence not always) and works without problem. Except the mouse: after completing the reboot the light of the mouse went off, indicating that there is no power. Replugging the mouse results in power for the mouse and it works like a charm too.
What can be the cause? And, maybe more important. I contacted HP, but they give no support for Linux.

I've installed Ubuntu 10.04 on a Packard Bell laptop and I'm having some trouble with the trackpad and keyboard. At the login screen they both work fine, I can move the cursor and type in my password. But after I login they both immediately stop working and I have to use a USB mouse and keyboard.

I have a cd drive and a dvd burner in my computer that have worked fine for years. I run an up to date wheezy box. In the last month or so, the drives both started having a problem where they would immediately close after I open them by using the button on the drives. I am not sure which update caused the problem. If I do manage to shove a disc in before it closes, Nautilus doesn't mount the disk. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get the drives to work again?

When I try to enable any options in the Debian software, Software Sources immediately crashes. I'd like to enable official supported software downloadable from the internet.

I'm having a weird problem with my keyboard. I have to hold on to the key that I want typed for about 1 whole second for it to be entered... the mouse click is okay, it's just the keyboard.Here's a rough outline of what happened, and the significants events that took place on the desktop that this is happening on.The computer originally had Debian Lenny on it. At some point of time, I just started getting everything from backports... and after some things and hops later, the computer does in fact report having Debian 6.0.Anyway - I again did an upgrade... and now the problem occurs.

I created a bash script which when executed as a desktop application modifies its own application icon. This is done my altering the Icon= line in the application's .desktop file.
Here is a gif of the application in action: [URL] ..... As you can tell, there is an approximately two second delay before the icon changes. I was wondering if there was a way of making the icon change immediately.
For completeness sake here is the script I am using:
Code: Select all#!/bin/bash
LAUNCHER=/home/alessandro/.config/xfce4/panel/launcher-29/14360293821.desktop
PLAY_ICON=media-playback-start-symbolic
PAUSE_ICON=media-playback-pause-symbolic
if [ ! -z $(grep "Icon=$PLAY_ICON" $LAUNCHER) ]; then
sed -i -e "s/Icon=$PLAY_ICON/Icon=$PAUSE_ICON/g" $LAUNCHER
elif [ ! -z $(grep "Icon=$PAUSE_ICON" $LAUNCHER) ]; then
sed -i -e "s/Icon=$PAUSE_ICON/Icon=$PLAY_ICON/g" $LAUNCHER
fi

I recently bought a new Envy 14. The Envy 14 has switchable graphics which i figured would give me a problem. I am trying to get Ubuntu 10.10 onto it and have almost achieved it. I am able to load Ubuntu live and then install it. Everything including sound and wireless work perfectly out of the box. The issue comes when I try to install the ATI proprietary drivers. The drivers install and then when i restart it boots to a command prompt. When i run fglrxinfo (i think that was the command) it tells me it can't detect a graphics card. Any help would be awesome. I would love to run Linux on this laptop (running windows for 2 months has been painful).

I have a strange problem in my new debian 8.3 LXDE install. Every time I boot my laptop it goes in to sleep mode automatically after a min. It is a default install and I have not configured any power management options. How do I find out the reason for the automatic sleep and how can I rectify it?

The fan noise caused by my HP envy 15 when I'm using OpenSuse 11.3. When the computer is under W7 there is almost no fan noise. In OpenSuse, however, every three or two minutes the fan goes very loud. It sounds as if the machine were doing hard processing work when it is just surfing and doing office stuff.
Another issue is the battery consumption, I already tried the power option but the under OpenSuse the machine eats the battery in almost half of the time than under W7. it stands for just one hour under OpenSuse, when it uses two in W7. These machine comes with a core i7 and an ATI graphic card.

For some reason my USB devices just stopped working. I'm on my laptop, so I really don't need a USB Mouse but I like to use it. I also can't use my flash drive. The Command lsusb sees it. It will see both the mouse and my flash drive. I don't have any other devices to test, but I would like to know that they would work when I need them. The strange thing is it also used to work. I don't know what changed.

I own an HP Envy 14 [url]. Letting Ubuntu (or any Linux) attempt to boot into a Live CD without changing any parameters results in a black screen, but with everything else working (for Ubuntu, that means the login sound is played). I've discovered that putting nomodeset in the kernel line will allow me to get so far as a command line, but I can't startx from here (I get "Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration."). I think my issues have something to do with the dual/switchable graphics in my laptop.

All USB devices do not work/initialise, except when I run Ubuntu 10.04 liveUSB (netbook version). The problem arose following upgrade from Ubuntu 9.10 to 10.04, but only manifested after a couple of weeks. I've tried other distros and the problem persists in Fedora 13 which I am now using.
Output of lsusb with a USB memory stick and mouse in the ports is:
Bus 007 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub

I had XP before, which gave me an error message and crashed. I didn't have the XP CD so I decided to give Linux an error. By what i can find, I have a somewhat unique problem. My USB drives no longer work. They light up green, so they obviously have some power and so on, but there is no response from any devices that you plug in, i.e. mouse, flash drives, etc. Nothing works.

Im running Ubuntu 10.10 and a couple of days ago, my usb sound deviced stopped working, possibly because of a recent update, as I didn't change something on my system as far as I can recall.My internal sound card still works just fine whatsoever, but my external devices,
E-MU 0202 USB
Logitech USB Headset
which also used to work flawlessly in the past, don't play audio anymore.Although they are still detected and selectable in the PulseAudio Volume Control.I can exclude hardware problems because everything is fine in WinXP.

When I installed slackare 13 it detected usb drives and cameras automaticallyow it doesn't. I am runnning a 13.0 system, not current, so I have only applied the updates in that branch (iirc including a new kernel).nowadays when i plug a device in it does not seem to be detected by HAL (i.e not in KDE).However the device is listed if you use the command "lsusb" and the computer obviously knows it has been plugged in as there is a relevant entry in dmesg.Sorry for the generallised nature of the post, but I don't really know anything about HAL or how it can have stopped working

I am running Ubuntu 10.10 on Hp Mini 110. I can't get Mobile Broadband to work ... whenever I plug a USB device in, nothing is detected and there is no option to connect to mobile broadband. The devices I have tested are;
1. ZTE MF636
2. ZTE MF626
3. Huawei K3565-Z
4. Nokia 5800XM phone in PC Suite Mode (works on my other laptop running Ubuntu 10.04)
I have tried uninstalling with a full purge of USB-Modeswitch and then reinstalling it. This machine is upgraded from 10.04. It wasn't working in 10.04 either.

I am using Ubuntu, now installed KDE (kubuntu) and I have Bluetooth working and enabled but for some strange reason the bluetooth scan is not finding any devices in spite of the fact that I have my mobile phone with bluetooth on and discoverable. My laptop is HP Touchsmart tm2 2102tu. Here's output of my hciconfig -a

Neither hcitool scan nor scanning with Gnome or KDE bluetooth settings is working for me.

Booting up this morning, no problem. But I accidentally let my laptop go into suspend mode, which doesn't work, so I had to force a restart (Suspend mode on my laptop won't allow me to wake it up again). Now, on rebooting, X doesn't work. I usually boot to RL3 then use startx. Now it just flashes the screen then gives me this error -
Code:
(EE) Error compiling keymap (server-0)
(EE) XKB: Couldn't compile keymap
XKB: Failed to compile keymap
Keyboard initialization failed. This could be a missing or incorrect setup of xkeyboard-config.
Fatal server error:
Failed to activate core devices .....
Fatal server error:
Failed to activate core devices.
Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support at [URL] for help. Please also check the log file at "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" for additional information. If I su - to root and then do "init 4", I get to xdm, and I can log in. X then starts, but with no sound, wrong keymaps, launchers not working; all sorts of things wrong. If I startx as root I get a normal desktop. I have tried copying root's xinitrc to /home/spoovy, but makes no difference.

I don't have an opportunity to check it out now... Does Debian 6 testing mount inserted CDs/Flash-drives automatically like Ubuntu does? Or the only way to mount them after inserting is to use mount command?

I use Debian 8.2 without DE. I can mount removable devices (USB sticks, external HDDs) manually using mount/umount to specific folders under /mnt or /media. But I want them mount automatically when plugged-in as /media/disk-label. Also I want to be able safely remove already mounted devices without data loss.As I understand, I need to create custom UDEV rule and associate it with mount/umount scripts. E.g. mount script
Code: Select all#!/bin/sh
mount_point=$ID_FS_LABEL
if [ -z $mount_point ]; then
mount_point=${DEVNAME##*/}
fi
# retrieve gid of the plugdev group and set it as owner of mountpoint
plugdev_gid="$(grep plugdev /etc/group|cut -f3 -d:)"
if [ -z $plugdev_gid ]; then
[code]....
Is this safe and correct approach or it is better to use something else?

I'm using a Dell SC440 server for this effort. I started with Debian 6.0.7 32 bit i386 version in mid April and everything seemed to go smoothly until the first boot finished, I wanted to look at the hard drive just to see what storage space was left to work with. The drive was not recognized and I could not mount it. The error message was "One or More Block Devices are Holding /dev/dm-0".
I could not find anything on the debian forums that seemed to relate to the error message so Google led me to the same problem on Fedora, Ubuntu and one other distro. I flattened the machine and restarted from scratch. This time using Debian 6.0.7 AMD64 version. The install went well but I had the same problem with the same results. So I started over several more times before the new Debian 7.0 AMD64 version was released. Under Debian 7.0 I not only get the same error message but I also get a message that my video card is not supported under this new version of gnome and sudo does not work.

I would like to create a logon script, for specific user, under ssh connection, to backup several directories in a USB device; this backup will run when the device was plugged in and the user logs in server. My knowledge of linux isn't very deeply now, and some questions are in my head. I would like to make this in a chroot jail, and the user log in through ssh connection doesn't have to make nothing, the logon script will mount the USB device and make the backup (using rsync or whatever), and exit the ssh connection when it finish.
But the questions are:
- is possible to a user in a chroot jail mount a USB device?
- from this jail, the directories outside of the jail could be available or need to be bind or something for this task?
- it will be better to "jail" all the directories to backup, inside de chroot path (almost would be samba sharing for Windows clients)?

I'm trying to assign pci devices to pci-stub at boot before any of the kernel drivers can access it. I've successfully managed to do this on a Ubuntu system but I cannot get it to work on Debian. I've set pci-stub to load as a module in /etc/modules. I've then tried both these methods:
Add pci_stub ids=8086:100f to /etc/initramfs-tools/modulesSet GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="pci_stub.ids=8086:100f" in /etc/default/grub.
Both give the same result after updating grub/initramfs and a reboot: when I check "dmesg | grep pci-stub" I get:
Code: Select all[ 1.522487] pci-stub: add 8086:100F sub=FFFFFFFF:FFFFFFFF cls=00000000/00000000
The actual device id's are not claimed by stub. Same for lspci -v which shows that the devices are still using the kernel drivers.Again, this configuration works on Ubuntu. Also issuing the following commands successfully assigns one of the devices to pci-stub but I need it to work on boot before the kernel drivers load:
Code: Select allecho "8086 100f" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pci-stub/new_id
echo 0000:02:02.0 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:02:02.0/driver/unbind
echo 0000:02:02.0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pci-stub/bind

I've encountered this problem twice. Sometimes Phonon is listing so many devices like this: [URL] ....
Usually there are just two devices like this: [URL] ....
When there are so many devices listed the volume control by using volume keys is different. It's usually up or down by 5%, but if the condition is like that the volume not up or down by 5%.
I've never encountered this kind of problem in other KDE distros. I'm using Jessie.

On a fresh install of squeeze (with the exception of some installed video firmware and the latest updates from the repos) from the kde cd.
System is running an ASUS Sk8V motherboard with onboard sound, also a SB Audigy 2 ZS sound card. Speakers are plugged into the sound card.
Sound worked fine before in Lenny except I had to create /etc/modprobe.d/sound with the following to get the system to prioritize the SB card over the onboard audio
options snd-emu10k1 index=0
options snd-via82xx index=1
I've done the same with the new install, and still no audio.
I followed the troubleshooting steps from the FAQ forum, but am stuck on the end, which suggests doing the following:
The following string needs to be added to the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf file
options snd-hda-intel model=YOUR_MODEL
