Hi,

I have three USB hard drives. Two of them work fine with Efica MX, but one doesn't get even recognized. It is a few years old 1 TB Lacie drive. It works fine when connected to a desktop PC with Ubuntu 10.04.

I got my Efica MX just 2 days ago, and I'm using the default installation of Ubuntu 10.10.
Code:
tapani@Efica:/lib/udev/rules.d$ uname -a
Linux Efica 2.6.31.14.26-efikamx #22 Wed Sep 21 09:32:09 CDT 2011 armv7l GNU/Linux
When I put a power cord to the drive and attach a USB cable from the drive to Efica MX, I can see that the device becomes visible in the USB device list:
Code:
tapani@Efica:/lib/udev/rules.d$ lsusb
Bus 002 Device 121: ID 059f:1019 LaCie, Ltd Desktop Hard Drive
Bus 002 Device 004: ID 046d:c504 Logitech, Inc. Cordless Mouse+Keyboard Receiver
Bus 002 Device 003: ID 13d3:3273 IMC Networks 802.11 n/g/b Wireless LAN USB Mini-Card
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 1a40:0101 TERMINUS TECHNOLOGY INC. USB-2.0 4-Port HUB
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0b95:772a ASIX Electronics Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
However, it doesn't show up anywhere on the desktop, and I get this in dmesg:
Code:
tapani@Efica:/lib/udev/rules.d$ tail -f /var/log/messages

So, something goes wrong and a reset occurs. This happens over and over again, if I keep the cables connected...

I found something a little bit similar from launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... bug/499881. Yet, according to dpkg --list I don't even have linux-fsl-imx51 installed.

I tried to file a new bug in launchpad, but ubuntu-bug tool failed because Efica MX is using a customized version of Ubuntu.

So, any ideas?

Hi.

There will be a new kernel out soon which should fix this issue and a few others.


Johan.

That's great.

For now, I solved it by swapping the hard drives between their cases (of course the one I needed to work was the one that didn't).

Give me an email address and I can send you a test kernel to see if that drive will work. I don't think the fix in Launchpad is at all the same thing but I added your vendor and device id to the fix and we'll see if it really is..

I suspect the case is bad, return it and but the new one.I have put together dozens of these things, and I've had a couple that were dead.
