[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1040557] Re: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C, np700z5c laptop
I apologize for flooding this bug report but I posted in several samsung/linux related forums with no reply. I guess I got lucky with this laptop (530u3c-ad5br BIOS:p07abh) since the bios is supposed to be still affected by the bug but I installed gentoo with a kernel new enough to have the samsung-laptop module checking for UEFI at start and blacklisting itself. So I installed normally in UEFI modes without bricking it. However, none of my leds work. Not even the AC-outlet connected one when it's powered down. I don't think this is a software issue and I suspect that probably it will need to have the BIOS reflashed, but since I got rid of windows and reflashing is a hassle, I wanted to find out first if someone else is experiencing the same problem, or even if someone else is not (at this point I have no clue if all, some or none other 530u3c have this problem). I already tried unpluging and pressing the hole/button that powers the battery in the back, as well as going through the code in the kernel and in the DSDT tables for clues, to find nothing. -- 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/1040557 Title: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C,np700z5c laptop Status in Ubuntu CD image build software: Fix Released Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu quantal series: Fix Released Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Oneiric: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Precise: Fix Released Status in linux source package in Quantal: Fix Released Bug description: I cannot provide detailed log massages because laptop is bricked right now.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1040557] Re: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C, np700z5c laptop
Blacklisting the samsung-laptop module in UEFI mode fixes the related but separate issue of the kernel crashing on bootup. The root cause of the bricking was that Samsung's firmware had an undocumented requirement of 5KB of free UEFI variable space to be able to start up. The kernel crash would cause a log dump, which could cause the variable store to be filled beyond this limit. (Matthew Garrett provided a more detailed report in his blog last year: http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/25091.html ) Handling of UEFI variables was changed in the kernel (in Ubuntu 13.10 and newer), and Samsung supposedly made fixes to their firmware, so the bricking issue is fixed. As far as this bug is concerned, the installation procedure is to update your firmware to the newest version and then install Ubuntu as usual. Driver support for particular laptop models should probably be addressed in separate bug reports.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1040557] Re: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C, np700z5c laptop
No. Despite not directly causing the bricking, the samsung-laptop driver will only work in CMS mode and will cause random and potentially very bad problems when running under UEFI. The driver support issue is separate from this bug.

Hi all, I own an Samsung Series 5 Ultra NP540U3C with Windows 8. I updated the bios to P12ABH and want to install Kubuntu 14.04. I understand that the bug seems fixed with kernels 3.10 and this bios but I am not sure about the procedure as people explained different setups. If I want to keep windows, should I select CSM or UEFI in the bios? Secure and Fast Boot? Do I have to do anything with /boot/efi? Can I install / on the SSD alongside windows and install /home on the HDD? Sorry if my questions are a bit trivial but I have been lost in the plethora of feedbacks.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1040557] Re: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C, np700z5c laptop
Hey Adrian, Let me just quote what I wrote above 11 months ago: First of all, I have installed SAMSUNG BIOS upgrades from within Windows 8, then reduced Windows partition to leave around 40–50 Gb of free space, the remaining free space on a HDD was allocated for Ubuntu's /home directory. Next I disabled Intel rapid start technology, in Windows, (for I might need to copy files from Ubuntu to that Windows partition in the future, and AFAIK having that enabled would lead to filesystem errors) and disabled secure boot in BIOS. Having made those preparations, I went to install Ubuntu 13.04 amd64 from a USB flash drive. (I have a 500 Gb hard drive and a SanDisk SSD i100 24GB. As I do not boot into Windows very often, I wiped everything present on the SSD and allocated it for Ubuntu's / partition (great boot/app launch speeds!).) All is well. Later I realized Windows would not boot out of the box, complaining something about an invalid path or something, I do not recall the exact message. However, installing and using Repair-Boot did the trick; now I am able to boot into both Ubuntu and Windows 8 just fine. For the record, I'm still running the same install only upgraded to Trusty. I can confirm everything is working fine, dual boot works etc. I installed it in the UEFI mode; keep in mind that otherwise you would't be able to boot Windows. 2014-05-20 21:14 GMT+02:00 nanolight 1040...@bugs.launchpad.net: Hi all, I own an Samsung Series 5 Ultra NP540U3C with Windows 8.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1040557] Re: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C, np700z5c laptop
Hi everybody, I have just purchased a 530U3C. I have read through all the comments. I would like if someone could clarify some points. About the specific issue: Is it reasonable safe to try/install Ubuntu disabling UEFI? Does current release 13.04 come with a kernel containing the patch mentioned above? The BIOS menu does not have secure boot, or cms, just enable or disable UEFI. disabling that setting would be enough? What are the disadvantages of disabling UEFI? What would be the best way to create the booteable pen drive? I upgraded the BIOS using samsung's updater (version info below) . Do we have any info yet ragarding the fix? A little off-topic / if someone insalled ubuntu in this model: Does dual booting work ok? i.e. may i risk the Windows 7 installation by installing GRUB, etc? Is it safe to delete the partitions on the SSD drive and install linux there or would that bring problems to windows? Many thanks in advance and sorry if this is a misuse of the bug-report.

Re: [Kernel-packages] [Bug 1040557] Re: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C, np700z5c laptop
Calant, let me put it this way. There were no confirmations either from SAMSUNG or from Ubuntu/kernel devs that the fixes released necessarily solve those issues (no info from SAMSUNG at all). However, as you can see, there are almost no new reports that people are still facing the issue. If you are interested in my way of dealing with the situation, as I wrote somewhere above, I installed vanilla 13.04 (it already has the hypothetically bug triggering 'samsung-laptop' module disabled) and afterwards (on the first boot) made sure to have a 3.10 kernel installed from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/. (Just in case; as 3.10 – still a -rc at the time – was the first kernel containing some significant Matthew Garrett's anti-bricking patches that should in theory remove even a slightest possibility to be affected by the issue.) Have not looked back since then, everything has been working flawlessly (I have a 530U3C-EE05 machine). So you can wait or just do the same as I did (just take the 3.11 mainline kernel instead, as it is already out). And I am not the only one who did this, as you can see in this thread. 2013/9/11 calant 1040...@bugs.launchpad.net So I figure the safest thing to do is to wait for Ubuntu 13.10 release? Since this uses linux kernel 3.11 which contains the anti brick patch? -- You received this bug notification because you are subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1040557 Title: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C,np700z5c laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557/+subscriptions -- 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/1040557 Title: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C,np700z5c laptop Status in Ubuntu CD image build software: Invalid Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu quantal series: Fix Released Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in “linux” source package in Oneiric: Fix Released Status in “linux” source package in Precise: Fix Released Status in “linux” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Bug description: I cannot provide detailed log massages because laptop is bricked right now.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1040557] Re: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C, np700z5c laptop
So here's my STORY(Long Story) with my Samsung computers. I think what i'm going to write could be a: GUIDE IN INSTALLING UBUNTU 12.04.2 ON SAMSUNG 535U3C-A02 AND SAMSUNG 535U3C-A03(A02=AMD A6 - A03=AMD A4) 1) Update BIOS using windows 8(or Win7) preinstalled. My version was P04RAS updated to P07RAS! 2) Create a boot disk using unetbootin on windows 8 3)Go to BIOSFastBootDisabled 4) Go to BIOSSecureBootDisabledCSM OS(IMPORTANT DO NOT SELECT CSM OS AND UEFI OS) 5) Select your USB-DRIVE as primary device for boot. 6) Boot into Live. --BREAK-- At this point the computer should work but there are several problems: 1)Ati drivers(KEEP THE COMPUTER SCREEN ON AND NEVER GO ON SUSPEND..MAYBE CLOSING THE SCREEN OR YOU'LL HAVE TO REBOOT INTO LIVE!!) 2)On AC-plugged in the computer is very slow so please charge your battery before installing. The solution to this problem is installing Jupiter during your live session..so if you install jupiter you can use your computer with AC-in. --Continue-- 7)Install UBUNTU 12.04.2 choosing the option to install Updates and third part software. 8)At this point (for me) WIN 8 is not recognized so chose Other in installation option. 9)Editing Partitions: You just DO NOT TOUCH BOOT PARTIOTION!! Resize Win 8 one(NTFS partition) and create, using the new free space, an EXT4 partition and a SWAP partition. CHOOSE THE HDD(SDA) AS DISK TO INSTALL BOOTLOADER, NO OTHER PARTITION! 10) Let Ubuntu install! 11) On the first reboot install all of the updates needed. 12) After installing updates go to: http://support.amd.com/it/gpudownload/linux/Pages/radeon_linux.aspx and download BETA DRIVERS 13.8!! 13) Install drivers using terminal(go to directory and type sudo 'name-of-the-driver') 14) On reboot YOU HAVE YOUR CARD FULLY WORKING AND WAKEUP AFTER SUSPEND WORKS PERFECTLY!! NOTE: DO NOT REMOVE THE DRIVER SETUP AFTER INSTALL!! EVERY TIME YOU'LL UPDATE THE KERNEL YOU'LL HAVE TO REINSTALL DRIVERS MANUALLY FROM CONSOLE AND REBOOT. THEN EVERYTHING IS PERFECT AGAIN! 15) INSTALL JUPITER!!! Is very important so that the fan works correctly AND TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM OF SLOW PC ON AC IN! 16) Use the Plymouth fix proposed here: http://www.mobilegeek.it/2010/05/ubuntu-10-04-fix-veloce-per-plymouth/ to make plymouth show correctly on boot! 17) More or less you've DONE!! Enjoy 18) Battery Life is good..3H on 80% charge.. 19) Backlight start working when you install ATI drivers. 20) Camera works with skype! Everything is OK. I use this trick to disable bluetooth on boot: http://www.lffl.org/2011/12/ubuntu-disattivare-il-bluetooth-o-wifi.html I hope this guide could Help so much people using the same machine.

I had to use boot repair on insulation of 11.04, 11.10,and 12.04 to make Ubuntu visible on My grub table. 11.04 and 11.10 I had on my Sony viao. Then I moved up to a Samsung NP700Z5C laptop. Put 12.04 on that. When 12.10 came out I bricked my rig trying it out, on A live usb thumb drive. Ubuntu is getting harder and with every new distro to install on my computer.

I had been running fine Ubuntu by manually enabling CSM as boot option in BIOS and booting but GRUB would give an error trying to load Windows 8, I had to manually change back to UEFI boot option to load Win 8. I hadn't had time to find a fix to this. FYI when I installed Ubuntu I used the option install alongside Win 8. I have subsequently used the excellently tool here to fix this: http://sourceforge.net/p/boot-repair/home/Home/ I used this by installing via Ubuntu and just running standard options, upon reboot im running fine. And GRUB now boots fine into Ubuntu or Win 8. When I get time i'm going to actually dig a bit deeper and write a guide and figure out the actual issue but as a Linux noob I've not had the time to go too deep into the root cause. In essence using my above steps and then using the boot repair tool I'm able to dual boot fine.

@Fabio: if you completely remove Win8, you will likely lose the ability to upgrade your machine's firmware. The firmware can be upgraded only with Samsung Updater - a Windows application. If Win8 does not start from your newly installed Grub, you are probably hitting the known bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1024383 The solution suggested in post 18 on that bug's page worked for me. However, there was another problem with incorrect timeout setting; see paragraph 14 in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557/comments/114/.
