Red Hat / Fedora :: External HD Not Detected?

Jan 2, 2010

I have formatted (primary/ntfs) an old HD 80G and connected it by a USB cable to my laptop w/c is multi booted. I want to use it for back-up.

The external HD is detected and mounted automatically in Debian Lenny, Mint 7, openSUSE, Mandriva and even xp. However, no detection was found in Fedora 10.

In connection with this. May I please ask for help on how to check and understand why my Fedora partition failed to detect and mount the external HD?

Fedora Hardware :: USB External Hard Drive Not Detected

Aug 17, 2010

I just had a fresh install of Fedora 13 x86_64 on my notebook after using fedora 13 x32 for a while.I am using KDE Desktop.Everything seemed to be working fine out of the box except for minor problems with sound and plugins.The biggest issue is that Fedora does not recognize when I plug an external USB HDD (WD 320 GB for this matter).The USB light on the HDD does not go on, and nothing is auto mounted.It seems that USB does not work at all - I have tried to plug another USB device and it didn't seem to have power.

Fedora Hardware :: External Display Not Detected - Dell E6410

Oct 5, 2010

I just got a new laptop, and installed fedora 13 on it. I have had no major problems, until i tried to hook up a external monitor. It does not show up in the gnome-display application, and the keyboard switching button combination (Fn+f#) does not work. On my past laptop, this worked fresh from the install, f8->f10->f11.

System:

Dell Latitude E6410
nVidia Corporation GT218 [NVS 3100M] (rev a2)

Code:

$ yum list installed | grep nvidia
kmod-nvidia.x86_64 1:256.53-1.fc13.4 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates
kmod-nvidia-2.6.34.7-56.fc13.x86_64.x86_64
nvidia-settings.x86_64 1.0-6.fc13 @rpmfusion-nonfree-updates

[code]....

PS: is there a way to make it so that a box as above is contracted, requiring a click to expand?

Fedora Hardware :: External Monitor Not Detected - Dell Laptop - Monitor

Aug 17, 2011

My software and hardware information are as follows. I have Fedora 12 and KDE 4.4.5 installed on a Dell Vostro 1500 laptop. I believe it's a 64 bit processor; it's an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU. The external monitor is a Dell as well.

My problem is that my system does not seem to be detecting an external monitor that I have connected. Everything else is working just fine; however, I would like to have the option of attaching an external monitor. When I plug the external monitor into the laptop, the external monitor remains black and appears to be in power save mode. The results of xrandr -q (with or without the external monitor attached: it doesn't appear to change) are as follows.

Code:

How can I get my laptop to recognize that the external monitor is even connected? Let me know if I can be more specific or provide additional details.

OpenSUSE Hardware :: External VGA Not Even Detected

Jan 22, 2011

I got some troubles with my external VGA output of a Notebook. I tried various things (see below) but now I ran out of ideas. I studied the sticky post in this forum about configuring graphics cards but unfortunately this gave me no new hints. My System:

Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook E Series
OpenSuse 11.3 (i586, 32Bit)
Graphics: Intel 965GM

I found lots of questions and solutions concerning the 965GM but they all are just about configuring the VGA monitor/screen in Xorg.conf.d / xrandr. I'd LOVE to do so but in my case the VGA outout isn't even detected for some reason (please see details below) Summary of my findings up to now:

Ubuntu :: External Hard Drive Not Detected On 9.10?

Jan 4, 2010

My Toshiba 500Gb USB hard drive is not being detected anymore when i insert it in 9.10. It only started doing this from last week, it was fine before (and it works fine in Windows XP). The connections are fine and all, because when i type "lsusb", i see it as follows:

Bus 001 Device 003: ID 19d2:0063 ONDA Communication S.p.A.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Ubuntu :: External Hard Drive Not Detected

Jan 5, 2011

I have 1tb Seagate Freeagent NTFS External HD. I have Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 with dual boot as Ubuntu. I'm primarily a windows user, since i'm not that well acquainted with linux. External Hard Drive does not detect- when i connect it..it just gives a whirring sound and the "My Computer" window hangs. Figured out the cause- and temporary solution- The drive should do principle mount automatically. It won't if the file system is not "clean". That is possible if the drive was connected while you hibernated Windows, or if you did not properly disconnect the drive.

I booted with ubuntu and did the following-
sudo fdisk -l
and got the following:
Disk /dev/sdb: 1000.2 GB, 1000204884992 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121601 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x396e2b4d

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 1 121601 976760001 7 HPFS/NTFS

Then I typed:
sudo mkdir /media/FreeAgent
sudo chmod 777 /media/FreeAgent
And wrapped it up with editing fstab with the following code:
#FreeAgent USB Drive
/dev/sdf1 /media/FreeAgent ntfs defaults 0 0

Now the browser window for the freeagent hard drive pops up and I can access everything. I try to shutdown the computer but it won't as long as the hard disk is connected. So I have to pull the usb out. And the problem remains the same. I want the hard disk to be detected normally on my windows/linux (like normal usbs work-plug it in and it works). Also have no clue how to work a temporary solution like this with windows yet. I have boot with ubuntu everytime and repeat these steps when I want to access it.

Ubuntu :: WD External Drive Detected As A Floppy

Feb 21, 2011

Been using Ubuntu to extend the life of my hard drive. I'm not very familiar with the inner workings of Linux, but I know computers well.

My System:
- Ubuntu 10.04, gnome environment. Dual boot XP.

Problem:
- my external drive, WD essentials 2.2 TB, stopped working recently, about 6 months after installation of dual boot.

Facts:
- still detected, though SMART does not detect it.
- XP still detects it - cant access files though. *
- Ubuntu now detects a floppy drive, which I do not have.
- power still working.
- have tried a few different USB cables.
- happened around the time of several software updates. Maybe paranoia.
- had trouble with music playback.

Hypothesis:
- Drive is dying, cuz XP wont allow me in. *
- Something happened and it rolled back the drivers on the External HD.
- Somehow losing Voltage, though I dont know how. **

Have attempted:
- Disabling Floppy from bios.
- In Windows: disabling XP service pack 3, disabling Firewire 1394.
- Different USB cables. **
- Disconnecting all USB devices, except External HD. **

Debian Hardware :: External USB Hub Not Detected After Resumption From S3 Sleep

Aug 4, 2015

I am reporting two problems that could be related to each other. They have something to do with USB devices upon passing through the ACPI S3 sleep-resume cycle. The hardware is Thinkpad T450s, with Debian 8 64-bit edition. Kernel is provided by either the stock linux-image-3.16.0-4-amd64 or Liquorix's linux-image-4.1-3.dmz.1-liquorix-amd64 . For this case, it does not matter; the problem exists in both versions.

I have an external USB hub which has a USB keyboard receiver (for Microsoft wireless keyboard/mouse combo) attached to the hub. I then usually attach this hub to the laptop.

FIRST: The main problem is that the USB hub was not going to be re-detected upon resumption from sleep. Here is the sequence of events, in brief:

* Laptop was resumed from S3 sleep
* USB hub was attached to the laptop (has external keyboard receiver attached to the hub)--both were detected & working properly
* Laptop was put to S3 sleep
* Laptop was resumed from S3 sleep, both hub and external keyboard were not detected, the syslog says "USB disconnect" to that particular device.

Note that during all the actions above, the laptop is running by external AC power.

SECOND: I also found that the USB hub, if inserted while the laptop was asleep (before resumed), it would not get detected. `lsusb` turns nothing for that device, as if nothing was inserted in the laptop's USB port.

THIRD: I did an experiment this way: instead of putting keyboard receiver on the hub, I attached it to the laptop directly. Hub is still attached elsewhere on the laptop as well. In this way, the keyboard receiver is not malfunctioning after resume. But I found out that the keyboard receiver is behaving funny after resumption. It went to a kind of "very low power" state a lot when idling (not receiving keystroke/mouse movement) for more than about 3 seconds. This causes the external keyboard response to be sluggish, since the receiver has to be turned on back to "active" state before able to responsively receive keystrokes properly again. And this causes a lot of lost keystrokes.

In the second case, the sequence of events are like this:

* Laptop was resumed from S3 sleep
* USB hub was attached to the laptop; it is working
* External keyboard receiver was attached to the laptop; it is working
* Laptop was put to S3 sleep
* Laptop was resumed from S3 sleep, the hub was not detected anymore; the syslog says "USB disconnect" to that particular device. The external keyboard was re-detected, but now is running in a funny power state described above.

These issues did not exist when I use a different laptop running Debian 7/oldstable (wheezy).

Here's the lsusb output before sleep (after the USB hub was attached the laptop):

Code: Select all    ~ $ lsusb
    Bus 003 Device 002: ID 8087:8001 Intel Corp.
    Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
    Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
    Bus 001 Device 004: ID 5986:0366 Acer, Inc
    Bus 001 Device 003: ID 8087:0a2a Intel Corp.
    Bus 001 Device 008: ID 045e:071d Microsoft Corp.
    Bus 001 Device 007: ID 1a40:0101 Terminus Technology Inc. 4-Port HUB
    Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Now to back to sleep, then resume. This is what comes up:

Code: Select all    $ lsusb
    Bus 003 Device 002: ID 8087:8001 Intel Corp.
    Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
    Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
    Bus 001 Device 004: ID 5986:0366 Acer, Inc
    Bus 001 Device 003: ID 8087:0a2a Intel Corp.
    Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

Devices (045e:071d and 1a40:0101) were not detected again!

I included below excerpts of syslog to show the effect of sleep/resume to the USB devices. I munged it from the full syslog using this command:

Code: Select all    grep -i -e usb -e "systemd.*(suspend|sleep|resum)" -e "pm:" syslog| killutf8 > syslog.usb-only

Syslog events (for FIRST case above):

Code: Select all  # [SLEEP1]
    Aug  4 11:57:28 wirawan2 kernel: PM: Syncing filesystems ... done.
    Aug  4 11:57:28 wirawan2 kernel: PM: suspend of devices complete after 701.491 msecs
    Aug  4 11:57:28 wirawan2 kernel: PM: late suspend of devices complete after 11.036 msecs
    Aug  4 11:57:28 wirawan2 kernel: PM: noirq suspend of devices complete after 14.231 msecs
    Aug  4 11:57:28 wirawan2 kernel: PM: Saving platform NVS memory
  # [RESUME1]

[Code] ....

I found several postings on the web similar to this, e.g. [URL] .... and see the references therein. But I don't think the problem is the same as mine. In particular, only external USB hub gives me problem like this (as well as the keyboard receiver, to a lesser extent)..

Ubuntu :: External Hard Drive No Longer Detected?

Mar 14, 2011

I have a problem with my external hard drive. I've always used to connect it to my Ubuntu Server with the following command: sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdc1 ..and it's worked fine, but after a reboot I did a couple of times ago, the hard drive no longer appears.sudo fdisk -l doesn't show the hard drive anymore. Connecting it to a Windows computer works, I even tried the "safely remove harddrive" function, but to no avail.

Ubuntu :: Can't Unmount External Hard Drive Without Root Not Being Detected By GParted

May 26, 2011

I have Seagate Freeagent Go 500GB external hard drive that I use for backup. I wanted to resize the partition so I used GParted to shrink the 500GB NTFS partition to 400GB. The other 100 I wanted to encrypt and use for some other more important files. For some reason, the shrink failed and I disconnected the hard drive and reconnected it. I didn't see the icon appear on the desktop. I went into the Disk Utility to discover that GParted's shrink error deleted all of the partitions on my hard drive. So I created a new 400GB NTFS partition and put back all of my files. The other 100 is unallocated currently.

It will normally mount automatically and show up on the desktop but the hard drive won't mount without me going into the Disk Utility and mounting it through there. I can't even mount it from the Terminal with root privileges. It gives me this:

Quote:

sudo mount /media/My Data
mount: can't find /media/My Data in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab

Now, I can unmount with root privileges and I can unmount it from the Disk Utility. I can browse and edit the files within. But I can't unmount it from within Nautilus or on the desktop (the Safely Remove Drive option is not there).

The new 400GB partition also isn't detected by GParted. It just shows the whole drive as unallocated.

Fedora Hardware :: Sound Not Detected In 11?

Jun 14, 2009

installed Fedora 11 on my laptop a couple of days ago. Everything went well in the installation except for the fact that I have no sound. I have a HP Pavilion dv5 and I have installed Gnome as my desktop. I tried fiddling around with the sound sliders in System/Preferences/Sound/ and System/Preferences/Advanced Volume Control but with no success in getting the sound to work. What is the problem with my sound? Any help would be appreciated. Interestingly, I had no problems with sound in Fedora 10, except for the fact that my internal mic was not working out of the box but even with that, I was able to find a workaround to get it working. By the way, I have the Intel 820801i (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller as my sound card.
