i will test the latest upstream kernel (already using it except for these tests).
but here the syslog while i was trying to delete files from another external hdd with ext4: http://pastebin.com/uTue0FZr and then i tried formating the very same one to ext4: http://pastebin.com/UQs4x2du both were done using the current default kernel 3.16.20. The device is working fine under windows connected to usb3, but i think the external hdd has only usb2. The device used in the log of the opening post was an usb 3 external hdd. i will try to reproduce this with the latest upstream kernel later. -- 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/1378041 Title: USB 3 unreliable Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: None of my external hdd's or sdcard reader are working on my usb3 ports under ubutnu linux 14.10 (also not on ubuntu 13.10 and stoped working either after an early update during 13.10 or 13.04, can't remember). lately i decided to report the bug and here is the syslog snippet while i tried writing to an external hdd with ntfs. it disconnected and reconnected. http://pastebin.com/qXHX6pHN on another hdd with ext3 formated it just caused io errors. i do not have the logs anymore and may post them if i get the device back again. similar issues with my external sd-card reader. all of these devices work fine on usb 3 under windows and worked also fine some time in the past under ubuntu. i try to update this when i can repeat the issue (currently none of this devices are available for me ut will be in the near future).
