Ubuntu Installation :: Asus M4A88TD-M EVO / USB3 Failing
Jan 8, 2011
I'm struggling to know where to look for a problem. A newly upgraded machine uses the following main parts:
Asus M4A88TD-M EVO/USB3 motherboard
AMD Phenom II X2 560 processor
4GB Crucial high speed memory
Onyx OCZ 32 GB SSD
Every attempt at installing Ubuntu 10.10 fails with a message about copying from the CD to the disk. The CD has been burned again, and can be run as a live CD on a different machine. The motherboard has had the BIOS upgraded to the latest version. Swapping the Onyx OCZ SSD for a Seagate Barracuda 320 GB (taken from a working system) fails in the same way, although it takes a little longer.
A basic install of Windows XP worked, apparently without problem. Running the Ubuntu 10.10 live CD does not work properly - attempting to start Firefox causes a message to appear in the bottom bar saying it is starting, but it disappears again without Firefox actually starting. (Works OK with the same CD on an older machine).

Ubuntu 10.10, 32 bit.I've got a 2TB WD external disk which has USB 3.0, and I have a USB 3.0 PCIe card.Plugging the drive into the card has no effect at all. The drive powers itself up, but the kernel log is silent. A USB 2.0 flash disk works properly with the card, and the WD disk works properly plugged into a USB 2.0 port, but the combination of the 3.0 disk and the 3.0 card is completely nonfunctional, even when using a small extension cable to cut off the superspeed connection.
Searching suggested that this is because of a bug which would prevent superspeed from working, but should -not- cause complete failure (highspeed fallback should be OK). I tried the suggested fix for this anyway, which was to install kernel 2.6.37-020637rc1 (was 2.6.35-24-generic). This did not help my problem nor did it correct that endpoint error message.

I just bought a dual USB2/USB3 external disk for backup purposes on my Ubuntu server box, running 8.0.4 LTS. For various reasons I can't upgrade to the newest LTS yet and I was wondering if there were any plans for USB3 support on Ubuntu Server 8.0.4?

I have a clevo w230ss laptop which has debian testing on it
Code: Select alluname -a
Linux linux 4.2.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.2.6-1 (2015-11-10) x86_64 GNU/Linux
It also has 1 usb 2.0 port and 3 usb 3.0 ports which all work, but give me max speeds of 1.2mbp/s with usb 3.0 when transferring files.
I have also an external usb 3.0 hard drive. Before i switched to debian i was using xubuntu and when i was transferring a 4gb file to the external drive via usb 3.0, this took at most 2 minutes, now in debian it takes about an hour.

I have Debian Jessie (testing) with a custom kernel 3.15.7 installed on an Acer Aspire V5-123 netbook which has 2 USB2, and 1 USB3 ports. The problem is that my A4 tech usb mouse is only detected when I connect it to the USB3 port!
Here is the dmesg output after I plug the mouse to the USB3 port:
Code: Select all[ 844.152073] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=09da, idProduct=000a
[ 844.152089] usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0
[ 844.152098] usb 1-1: Product: USB Mouse
[ 844.152106] usb 1-1: Manufacturer: A4Tech
[Code] ....
and the lsusb output:
Code: Select allBus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 003 Device 002: ID 04f2:b3f6 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd

Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
But, if I plug the mouse to one of my USB2 ports, I get the following output from lsusb regardless of having or not having my mouse connected:
Code: Select allBus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

And finally, the modules loaded:
Code: Select alllsmod | grep usb

Apparently, people have had similar problems in Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, ..., but, I did not find a unique fix.

I bought a Thoshiba StorE art 3 1TB external hard drive yesterday and I had to clear off a lot of data from my vaio to the ext drive. But I am facing an acute problem in the data transfer and write speed. The drive is USB 3.0 and my usb ports are
Code:
lspci|grep -i usb
00:1a.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset USB2 Enhanced Host Controller (rev 05)
00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset USB2 Enhanced Host Controller (rev 05)
I am running on fedora 13 with
Code:
uname -r
2.6.34.8-68.fc13.x86_64
When I try to transfer a big chunk file, the speed I get is 1.7MB/s. I have tried in my other boot windows and had 56MB/s
The second doubt is, I have formatted the whole disk as a single partition of 930GB(NTFS). Do I have to partition into smaller parts for efficiency ?

I have a desktop system (P55-USB3 + Core i7 + Ubuntu 10.10) that fails to suspend/resume from memory. So I'm trying to diagnose the problem. The first obstacle was easy enough --- when I put the system to sleep to memory, the computer comes back alive right away. A look at /var/log/kern.log revealed that one USB device (usb10) failed to suspend, and from there I was able to pin it down to the USB3 controller in the BIOS. Disabled that and this problem disappeared.
Now, I'm stuck with the second obstacle. The computer successfully goes into the suspend mode, but it hangs during resume. The monitor doesn't get any video signal, and it fails to respond to ping (netconsole doesn't work either.) After a forced reboot (that involves unplugging the power cable), /var/log/kern.log doesn't contain any interesting entries. All the pm_test modes from freezer to core succeed (I followed [URL] I've also tried pm_trace (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend) but again kern.log nor dmesg contains anything after the suspend. Either the write didn't survive the forced power off, or the resume is failing even before that. The motherboard doesn't have a serial port nor firewire, so getting kernel logs through them is not a possibility, either.

I'm done following this guide about Kernel Building. [URL] .... and I got done successfully, the .config file was the very default obtained from "make menuconfig" the only extra thing added was:
Code: Select allCONFIG_USB_EHCI_HCD_ORION=y
All dependencies had to be installed about 2GBs for kernel building to function properly, mainly due to the needing of kernel headers. It loads successfully on my desktop whether or not it needs that module (if it was added correctly) but my goal was to add xhci support so it will load from my laptop, still won't load from the laptop giving me a initramfs prompt. Adding that code line to the .config file didn't seem to do what I wanted.
Although since I did a "make-kpkg clean" command as requested by the manual I dont know if it used that line or not to be honest. since I think it deleted the .config file in its efforts to clean old configs so I don't know I'm new to kernel building.

iomega prestige 1TB fails to mount on Fedora 15 32 bits. that machine has a USB2 port. /var/log/messages reports this in a loop:
[Code].....
on my Fedora 15 64 bit laptop, it crashes the whole box. (I'll post later the /var/log/messages extract). That machine has a usb 3 port. I'm most interested in making it work under Fedora 15 32 bit, but the crash under 64 bit may give other insight

I've tried to upgrade my FC8 on Presario F700 series laptop to FC 10 and facing some issues. I've a live CD (i386). Initially i tried upgrading FC 8 to FC 10 and installation was stuck around 30% completion saying its unable to fins libdbi-0.8.3-1.fc9.i386.rpm. Then I tried to install FC 10 from scratch as system went to inconsistent state and faced two issues with two different setup options -
1) when i selected necessary software to be installed for office use and development, it failed after installing 20% saying libgnomeui-devel-2.24.0-2.fc10.i386.rpm
2) i then opted for for software to be installed for office use (default option) then it failed after installing around 50% saying libXrandr-1.2.3-1.fc10.i386.rpm
im trying to understand if this is a problem due to my laptop configuration (AMD Athlon 64 X2 Duel Core) or due to issue with the live CD.

I've burned the installation media on several different types of media, and i'm getting an error after the 3 bars load (first screen). I've tried the verify and boot option, and it's fine. I'm trying Fedora 10 on a studio xps 1340. The error messageet isCE hpet increasing min_delta_ns to xxxxx nsec twice, thenForce XPAon: 0about 15 times, thenCE hpet increasing min_delta_ns to xxxxx nsec a few more times, this pattern alternates and the xxxxx keeps increasing, starting at something like 10000 and jumping by 50000 each time it reposts.

I have an Asus Eee running the factory installation of Linux. Xandros, I think. Whatever it is, it's not letting me update Firefox, so I'm trying to replace it with Ubuntu Netbook. I made a bootable USB stick according to the instructions at [url], and I know the problem isn't with the USB because the Windows machine I'm currently on wants to know if I want to try out Ubuntu or install Ubuntu or learn more, but when I put the stick in the netbook, nothing happens, and when I reboot with the stick in the netbook, nothing happens. The netbook's set to boot from a USB if there's one present; I checked. Is the problem that the stick's only supposed to work on Windows?

I had an Ubuntu 10.10 installation that ran fine for around a month or so. I decided to go out and try to install aptosid (formerly known as sidux) as a dual boot. I couldn't get the desktop to boot in the LiveCD and kept getting an error saying that the nouveau module could not be loaded. I rebooted and at the main LiveCD screen, I added xmodule=vesa xres=1440X900. I was able to get a 1024x768 resolution. I decided that I really didn't like aptosid, so I shut it down and took out the LiveCD. When I booted back into Ubuntu, my resolution changed down to 640x480 for some reason. I decided to remove the proprietary nVidia driver I had installed via jockey. Once it was removed, I restarted. Now, I see no startup splash or a login screen - my monitor just goes to sleep.
I have all my files backed up already, so I decided to pop in my Kubuntu 10.10 LiveCD to install that. Once I choose the "Start Kubuntu" option, my monitor goes to sleep. I tried putting in Linux Mint Debian Edition LiveCD to see if that would work, and I had the same issue. After this, I went for the nuclear option and installed Windows 7 to see if it would wipe out any memory of my Linux drivers from the system. The Windows drivers for my card worked fine, so I decided to put the Kubuntu LiveCD back in and got the same problem. I am currently running a Partition Magic LiveCD, but could only boot into it using the Xvesa option instead of Xorg. My video card is an nVidia 9800 GT - and it has always worked in the past.

My boot disk is failing! I am a little nervous, so I'd like to have extra eyes on this so that I don't fubar it.
My setup is as follows, with WinXP and Ubuntu living on completely separate drives:
The boot disk (WinXP with grub2 on MBR) is failing. I need to replace it, pronto.
Do I need to get any data from the MBR on the failing disk before removing it?
Should I make the Karmic disk bootable and install grub on it before removing the failing boot disk?
Once I have Windows (re)installed on a new disc (which will still be /dev/sda) I want to install GRUB2 to its MBR and re-instate the old (current) boot options. How should I do this?

I'm not certain that my problem is due to an Ubuntu upgrade, but I'm running out of options.My private Wordpress installation was working fine, including being able to upgrade plugins and WP versions within the application. I've been doing all of the Ubuntu updates as I'm notified. I'm still on 9.10, but was planning to upgrade to 10.04 shortly - as soon as I get the Wordpress installation upgraded in fact.
But the plugin upgrades, and the Wordpress upgrades, are both failing with fopen errors, like so:Download failed. Could not open handle for fopen() to [URL]..After checking everything else I can think of (including temporarily making the wordpress directory hierarchy 777), and looking at the php.ini file, I wonder if some Ubuntu update is messing things up. Or if I've somehow changed something else that is causing the problem.

I've tried several times over the past day to install Ubuntu Netbook using Wubi but it kept on failing after the download of the ISO. After checking the log, I notice that it complains that 10.04 != 10.04.1 regarding the version. For the netbook, the ISO downloaded is indeed 10.04 while the installation title says it is installing 10.04.1.
I am sure that there is an easy fix for this in Wubi. I've used Wubi in the past and I am quite happy about it. This is not the proper place for it, but I'ld like to see the installation type support VirtualBox too - i.e., the Ubuntu setup installed by Wubi should be able to run inside VirtualBox.

I am running a 64bit 10.10 with gnome. Its pretty much a fresh install. I saw a project called CAINE, it looked neat so I'd thought I'd give it a try, something in the installation mucked up. Now when I open the Software center I get a message telling me "Items can no be installed or removed until the package catalog is repaired" I click repair and I get this error message: E:I wasn't able to locate file for the caine-from-deb package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.:So I thought I'd give it a go using synaptic package manager, it gives me these error messages: E: caine: subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 2 E: caine-from-deb: subprocess installed post-removal script returned error exit status 2.I am currently unable to install or update any software at the moment so I really need help to get this fixed.

Anyone know if Ubuntu 9.10 or Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10 will install and work properly on the new Asus Eee PC 1001P? Mine arrives tomorrow. I searched the forum and was surprised no one else is talking about this hot new netbook. I figured I'd start the thread myself. I'll try installing both Ubuntu and UNR as soon as I can and see how it works out.

I just installed Karmic Koala on one of my hard harddrive. The other disk has Windows XP. Previously I had a working dual-boot setup, but after problems with Ubuntu I reinstalled it. On booting, I get the following:
Code:
Grub Loading stage1.5
Grub loading, please wait...
Error 2
There is no Grub menu which might allow me to drop to a Grub prompt and evaluate. This occurs whether I boot with the Ubuntu harddrive or re-set the BIOS to boot with the Windows harddrive. If I boot with a LiveCD, I see that both my Ubuntu and Windows harddrives exist and are readable; the Ubuntu was indeed wiped clean and reinstalled; the issue is with the boot process. How can I set this up to boot?

It's been quite a run-around trying to get the Nvidia driver working.I have already followed a lot of instructions, at least onceI still get caught at "the pre-install script failed". When I looked at the script itself, it says it's "triggering an error status to prevent the installer from overwriting ubuntu's nvdia packages."Some say this script can be ignored, but it seems to be the only thing keeping my install from working.Some say install from root prompt, some say GUI OK. Some say d/l from NVIDIA, some from repository. I have been doing root, init 3, removing old drivers, etc..

I really like qBittorrent.I would really love it if it worked in the unity desktop.There's a few issues with this--
1. No icon in system tray.
2. No access to latest version in software center.
I've looked around in the forums and tried to "whitelist" all apps--I don't know what that means and don't personally understand why ALL apps weren't whitelisted in the first place.That was unsuccessful.
