[Kernel-packages] [Bug 2038759] Re: ubuntu does not mount usb disks

2023-10-08 Thread hugo barona
The failure is strange, since it initially affected USB ports 3 and 2.
Several hours later, when I turned the machine back on, it recognized a
USB memory in a USB 2 port and subsequently recognized a 500 GB HDD in a
USB port 3. When I disconnected the HDD disk and reconnected a similar
one into USB port 3, the system does not recognize it, the lights on the
disk turn on but with the lsusb instruction it does not appear; Next I
mounted the 15 GB USB memory again in USB port 2, and it was recognized,
then the 500 GB HDD disk that was connected was also recognized and I
was able to make a backup of 4 internal HDD disks, which are mounted
automatically when turning on the computer.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1637031] Re: In cold startup there is dark/blank screen

2016-11-12 Thread hugo barona
The real problem is grub. When I ran boot-repair, this tool gave the
following answer: "The boot files of [The operating system being used -
Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS] are far from the beginning of the disk. Your BIOS
might not detect them. You may want to retry it after creating a / boot
partition (EXT4,> 200MB, beginning of the disk). This can be done with
tools like gParted. Then select this partition via the [Partition /
separate boot:] option in [Boot Repair].
(Https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootPartition)". This problem is
problematic to find because when I turn off the computer and then
startup again several minutes later, the computer works very well, but
if I startup the computer several hours later, the computer fails
miserably. I think of that this problem is a bug because the manual in
/usr/share/info/grub.info.gz says: "GRUB understands filesystems and
kernel executable formats, so you can load an arbitrary operating system
the way you like, without recording the physical position of your kernel
on the disk.". If this is true, what: The boot files of [The operating
system being used - Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS] are far from the beginning of
the disk, means? I do not know.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1637031] Re: In cold startup there is dark/blank screen

2016-10-31 Thread hugo barona
Answer to:Joseph Salisbury (jsalisbury)

Firstly I want to say thanks a lot!
Before I test the latest upstream kernel, I want to give more information about 
this problem
1) I was reading a web page: PC Repair and Maintenance: In-depth Look at Power 
Supply, that it was reading By Scott Mueller
Feb 28, 2003 (http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=31105)
2) In the page 2, I found the following paragraph that describes the problem: 
If you find that a system consistently fails to boot up properly the first time 
you turn on the switch, but that it subsequently boots up if you press the 
reset or Ctrl+Alt+Delete warm boot command, you likely have a problem with the 
Power_Good timing. You should install a new, higher-quality power supply and 
see whether that solves the problem.
3) The unique difference is that I need to push reset button case not 
Ctrl+Alt+delete because keyboard is death
4) I changed the power supply for another with 650 W output
5) But the problem continues: startup+reset to keep the computer running
6) I was reading carefully the following paragraphs:
"The Power_Good Signal
In addition to supplying electrical power to run the system, the power supply 
also ensures that the system does not run unless the power supplied is 
sufficient to operate the system properly. In other words, the power supply 
actually prevents the computer from starting up or operating until all the 
power supply voltages are within the proper ranges.

The power supply completes internal checks and tests before allowing the
system to start. If the tests are successful, the power supply sends a
special signal to the motherboard, called Power_Good. This signal must
be continuously present for the system to run. Therefore, when the AC
voltage dips and the power supply cannot maintain outputs within
regulation tolerance, the Power_Good signal is withdrawn (goes low) and
forces the system to reset. The system will not restart until the
Power_Good signal returns.

The Power_Good signal (sometimes called Power_OK or PWR_OK) is a +5v
(nominal) active high signal (with variation from +2.4v through +6.0v
generally being considered acceptable) that is supplied to the
motherboard when the power supply has passed its internal self tests and
the output voltages have stabilized. This normally takes place anywhere
from 100ms to 500ms (0.1–0.5 seconds) after you turn on the power supply
switch. The power supply then sends the Power_Good signal to the
motherboard, where the processor timer chip that controls the reset line
to the processor receives it.

In the absence of Power_Good, the timer chip holds the reset line on the
processor, which prevents the system from running under bad or unstable
power conditions. When the timer chip receives the Power_Good signal, it
releases the reset, and the processor begins executing whatever code is
at address : (usually the ROM BIOS).

If the power supply cannot maintain proper outputs (such as when a brownout 
occurs), the Power_Good signal is withdrawn, and the processor is automatically 
reset. When the power output returns to its proper levels, the power supply 
regenerates the Power_Good signal and the system again begins operation (as if 
you had just powered on). By withdrawing Power_Good before the output voltages 
fall out of regulation, the system never sees the bad power because it is 
stopped quickly (reset) rather than being allowed to operate using unstable or 
improper power levels, which can cause memory parity errors and other problems."
7) My motherboard is a GIGABYTE P35-DS3L and pin 8 of the main power connector 
receives Power Good signal
8) When power supply is ON, the following occurs: the main task performed by 
SMPS, is to inform about the good power supply. As I told if the voltage is 
more/ or is less, in both the conditions a computer cannot work. As soon as you 
supply power to the computer, the SMPS checks the voltage level's its providing 
to the motherboard. If the power signal level is perfect, then SMPS will send a 
POWER GOOD signal to the motherboard timer.On receiving this POWER GOOD signal 
from SMPS, the motherboard timer will stop sending reset signal to the CPU. 
Which means the power level is good and the computer can boot.
9) Bootstrapping: Something has to be programmed by default, so that the CPU 
knows where to search for instructions.
This is an address location in the ROM. This address location is almost always 
constant in X86 based computers. The address location is :h. This 
address location is the last region of the ROM. It only contains one 
instruction. The instruction is to jump to another memory address location. 
This JUMP command, will tell the location of the BIOS program in the ROM.
This is how the computer will come to know where the BIOS program is located.
9) The Role of BIOS in booting process: The word booting comes from another 
word called bootstrapping. The computer knows how to bring itself up, when 

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1637031] [NEW] In cold startup there is dark/blank screen

2016-10-26 Thread hugo barona
Public bug reported:

When I startup my computer, I can see very fast screen given any
information. When cold startup process finish the screen is dark, usb
mouse light is on, keyboard light is on, but the computer does not
accept ctrl+alt+del and I must reboot with reset button on computer
case. Several seconds latter, the screen displays such as hard drives,
one ssd, are mounted and then the system information appears until the
gnome desktop. This problem always appears in the cold start. I changed
CR2032 motherboard battery and the problems continues. This problem
first appeared in the update and upgrade kernel and grub
