Same problem here, I remounted an external USB2.0 drive and noticed it was deathly slow... Checked the "Drive" tab, saw 12Mbps (USB1.1)...
I tried the workaround in the bug description... got up to this step: 7) sudo modprobe ehci_hcd Then immediately after issuing this command, my computer froze... after waiting a while, I hard-resetting it Reconnected the drive after it booted, and I had 480Mbps! Not sure if there is a safer way to reset the speed? Cheers, Gaspard -- slow USB 2.0 drive: it's mounted as USB 1.0, not USB 2.0! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/177235 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
