Don, as per http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-pavilion- dv9900-entertainment-notebook-pc- series/3725216/model/3740563#Z7_3054ICK0K8UDA0AQC11TA930O2 an update to your computer's buggy, insecure, and outdated BIOS is available (F.34). When you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate how does this improve the situation?
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. Also, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible: 1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an apport-collect): sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date 2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement or not. 3) Please mark this report Status Confirmed. If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid.
