peterzay, as per http://www.dell.com/support/troubleshooting/us/en/19/Product/inspiron-660 an update is available for your BIOS (A09). If you update to this, does it change anything?
If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: raring ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1104506 Title: Lexar JumpDrive S70 32GB takes too long to open Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: With disk utility, I create an encrypted USB2 flash drive. When I plug the drive into a USB2 socket, it can take up to 10 seconds for the password window to display. Ten seconds may not sound like much, but this process is usually near instantaneous. A 16GB Kingston Data Traveler, also encrypted, works fine. This is my first Lexar and first 32GB size for a flash drive.
