TGB1, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per http://www.asus.com/us/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/X551MA/HelpDesk_Download/ an update to your BIOS is available (513). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything? If it doesn't, 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
For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, then please mark this report Status Confirmed. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-513 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete ** Attachment removed: "version.log" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1402329/+attachment/4280658/+files/version.log -- 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/1402329 Title: Improperly recognized usb hard drives Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: original: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2256557 Ubuntu 14.10 udev: Installed: 208-8ubuntu8.1 Candidate: 208-8ubuntu8.1 ubuntu thinks several of my usb hard drives are cameras. will not mount/ no access to them ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.10 Package: linux-image-3.16.0-28-generic 3.16.0-28.38 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.16.0-28.38-generic 3.16.7-ckt1 Uname: Linux 3.16.0-28-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.7-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p: ed 2422 F...m pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: ed 2422 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sat Dec 13 20:30:22 2014 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=f2a15901-173a-4f65-9a46-a438036666bd InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-11-17 (26 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20140722.2) Lsusb: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 003: ID 04f2:b404 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd Bus 001 Device 002: ID 046d:c52f Logitech, Inc.
