[Bug 445852] Re: devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death
MFV, I just thought I should point out that this bug is not just within Ubuntu, but affects any Linux distribution that utilizes the Libatasmart package. -- devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445852 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
[Bug 445852] Re: devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death
Here's the patriot 32gb SSD that a couple of us have. I have had this one completely corrupt on both Ubuntu and Arch before applying the patch. ** Attachment added: "PatriotHDParam.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/39746314/PatriotHDParam.txt -- devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445852 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

Adamski, just thought I'd clarify that this applies to a lot of Linux distributions, not just Ubuntu. I have this bug on my Arch install, and I think someone with Debian has confirmed the bug as well. Pretty much anything that calls lib-ata-smart will suffer from this, so there's not really any reason to blame Ubuntu explicitly. -- devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445852 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

I followed Tommy over, and can confirm his confirmation. I have pretty much the same setup, EEE900, PL32GPEPCSSDR, but with Arch instead of Ubuntu, and the behavior is still there. Mine had a few other quirks too, such as hiding my mouse until I switch to a tty and back. After applying the workaround, everything seems to be good. -- devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445852 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
[Bug 430333] Re: beta installer left ASUS EeePC 900 unbootable
I finally got Arch up and running with Gnome on the SSD, and so far there's no problems. It's kernel version 2.6.31-ARCH. It may take some time before the bug propagates again on my machine as it was stable for about a month before eating itself. -- beta installer left ASUS EeePC 900 unbootable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430333 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
[Bug 430333] Re: beta installer left ASUS EeePC 900 unbootable
Hey, thanks. I zeroed the drive, and was able to reformat it afterwards. I'll try a couple of different distros as well. Starting with Arch. (Mainly to see what it's like to have to stick you hands into your system files.) I have some basic linux/coding skill, but nothing much beyond being able to follow directions and basic Java. Should we try some ubuntu derivatives like Mint to see if the bug carries over? -- beta installer left ASUS EeePC 900 unbootable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430333 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
[Bug 430333] Re: beta installer left ASUS EeePC 900 unbootable
After attempting to install Arch, Debian, and Windows XP, I can safely say that my SSD is entirely corrupted to the point were all of the installations failed. I don't know if it's bad hardware or what, but I can no longer use the SSD for anything. -- beta installer left ASUS EeePC 900 unbootable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430333 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

[Bug 430333] Re: beta installer left ASUS EeePC 900 unbootable
I have the exact same Patriot SSD in my AsusEEE 900, and have basically the exact same corruption issues. I'm running vanilla Ubuntu 9.10 right now, and the system will last for about a month before something breaks. Before I had Kubuntu 9.04, and never had a problem. I updated to 9.10 and the system ran fine for about a month, then gave me the grub error. After dicking around trying to fix it, I just reinstalled straight Ubuntu 9.10 on an ext4 partition, using default settings. System worked fine for about two-three months, then had the exact same corruption. Reinstalled with the newest Ubuntu 9.10 iso, and a month later, it's broken again. Except this time I can't even access the drive from a live CD. I'm on the live CD right now. I can't run a FSCK, because it reports: -- e2fsck 1.41.9 (22-Aug-2009) fsck.ext2: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while trying to open /dev/sda1 Could this be a zero-length partition? -- GParted reports this: http://i50.tinypic.com/10omkc0.jpg Palimpsest Disk Utility reports this: http://i50.tinypic.com/dzugli.jpg Palimpsest Disk Utility SMART reports this: http://i50.tinypic.com/2vklpia.jpg (Ignore the attachment, this is my first time using the bugs page.) ** Attachment added: "Screenshot-SMART Data.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/36346740/Screenshot-SMART%20Data.png -- beta installer left ASUS EeePC 900 unbootable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430333 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
