With the linux-kernel-3.5 I can have plug and play working with every devices of the docking station but upgrading to 3.8 the plug and play is still not working. If I connect the docking station before turning on the computer everithing works but if I disconnect and reconnect it again every device in the docking station doesn't work. The docking station is connected through light peak (thunderbolt). Using the kernel 3.5 I can unplug and plug in the docking and every devices will be refreshed, except the usb hub which is still not working. With the version 3.8 if I plug the docking station after the boot every device of the docking station doesn't work. Anyway everything works fine if I plug in the docking station before the boot. The plug and play of those devices doesn't work also with every vanilla kernel, so I think it's a patch introduced by ubuntu in the kernel version 3.5. In order to assure the support for every new vaio I suggest to include in your kernels also the last version of the module sony-laptop. This module is already included in main line but the version is outdated and several things don't work. I asked to the maintainer about that and he said that the module will be upgraded as soon as he can find the enough time to rewrite it in an acceptable way. Anyway the version provided by his git seems to be stable, or at least I had no problems with that. I suggest to include the last version of this module under the ubuntu kernel packages. You can find the last version here: http://git.kamineko.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=linux- sony-2.6.git;a=summary Thank you for your support --- ApportVersion: 2.9.2-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: diego 8182 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: diego 8182 F.... pulseaudio DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-02-24 (27 days ago) InstallationMedia: Kubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.1) MachineType: Sony Corporation SVZ1311C5E MarkForUpload: True Package: linux (not installed) ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb 1 radeondrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.8.0-13-generic root=/dev/mapper/kubuntu-root ro i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 pcie_aspm=force drm.vblankoffdelay=1 i915.lvds_downclock=1 i915.semaphores=1 quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-13.23-generic 3.8.3 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-3.8.0-13-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-3.8.0-13-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.104 Tags: raring Uname: Linux 3.8.0-13-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo dmi.bios.date: 05/21/2012 dmi.bios.vendor: Insyde Corp. dmi.bios.version: R0092C6 dmi.board.asset.tag: N/A dmi.board.name: VAIO dmi.board.vendor: Sony Corporation dmi.board.version: N/A dmi.chassis.asset.tag: N/A dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: Sony Corporation dmi.chassis.version: N/A dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnInsydeCorp.:bvrR0092C6:bd05/21/2012:svnSonyCorporation:pnSVZ1311C5E:pvrJ004RUQP:rvnSonyCorporation:rnVAIO:rvrN/A:cvnSonyCorporation:ct10:cvrN/A: dmi.product.name: SVZ1311C5E dmi.product.version: J004RUQP dmi.sys.vendor: Sony Corporation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1159418/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
