[Bug 445852] Re: devkit-disks-probe-ata-smart causes HSM Violations on SSD, and potential hardware death

2010-04-11 Thread shadowblast101
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.

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.

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.

2009-12-15 Thread shadowblast101
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.

[Bug 430333] Re: beta installer left ASUS EeePC 900 unbootable

2009-12-07 Thread shadowblast101
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.

2009-12-04 Thread shadowblast101
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?

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.

2009-12-02 Thread shadowblast101
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?
