Sry for the late repley - just found this! One simple workaround is to manually downgrade the udisks2 package:
HOW TO: Download an older version of the package eg here: www.ubuntuupdates.org/package/core/quantal/main/base/udisks2 go to folder which includes the package an type: sudo dpkg -i package.deb Now check the Version again with: sudo apt-cache showpkg udisks2 It should show you the downloaded version number now + some dependences (like this) Provides: 2.1.0-2 - udisks2:i386 2.0.0-1 - udisks2:i386 Reverse Provides: udisks2:i386 2.1.0-2 Now you have to lock the version in order to not update it automatically while apt-get update is running either with synaptic or console: Synaptic: search for udisks2 - it should show you again the downloaded version, mark it, and select lock version under package console: sudo echo “package hold” | sudo dpkg –set-selections If all is done reboot, test it and run sudo apt-get update to check if it gets updated or not. Hope that works for you guys! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1161985 Title: Error sending ATA command IDENTIFY DEVICE To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/libatasmart/+bug/1161985/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
