Ian McClenahan, as per
http://www.dell.com/support/troubleshooting/us/en/19/Product/precision-t5500
an update is available for your BIOS (A16). 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.

Title:
LibUSB usb_control_msg fails for kernel 3
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Since Ubuntu moved to kernel 3 we are no longer able to communicate with our
USB device which uses libusb 0.1. The device works with Ubuntu 10.04 and
earlier but fails with Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.10. I tried Fedora 17 which also
uses kernel 3 and it functions as expected. The first point where I can see
problems is a call to usb_control_msg
usb_control_msg(mDevice, USB_RECIP_DEVICE | USB_TYPE_VENDOR, 0xA0, 0xE600, 0,
(char*)pBuffer, 1, 1000)
which now returns -1.
