[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1936678] Re: Samsung Laptop support module doesn't load
The below patch is still in place so samsung-laptop will not work on EFI. commit e0094244e41c4d0c7ad69920681972fc45d8ce34 Author: Matt Fleming Date: Thu Jan 3 09:02:37 2013 + samsung-laptop: Disable on EFI hardware This is also before the DMI quirks, ex. if (efi_enabled(EFI_BOOT)) return -ENODEV; quirks = _unknown; if (!force && !dmi_check_system(samsung_dmi_table)) return -ENODEV; I am not aware of any updates on Samsung vs. Linux with EFI. It is really up to Samsung to make sure their BIOS doesn't get corrupted, so I guess this bug is a "won't fix". -- 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/1936678 Title: Samsung Laptop support module doesn't load Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: This is identical to bug # 1170885, which was filed 2013-04-20.

Alex, Does https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557 still apply? I’m running under UEFI, not BIOS, and I don’t want to brick this machine.

Please run "sudo modprobe samsung-laptop force". The "force" parameter will disable DMI check. If you can load samsung-laptop this way, we can try to add your DMI information to this driver. -- 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/1936678 Title: Samsung Laptop support module doesn't load Status in linux package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: This is identical to bug # 1170885, which was filed 2013-04-20.
