[03:24] I noticed that my system shows my USB3 controller attached, via tghe command "lspci", however, when I attach my external backup disk to it, the disk is not detected. Furthermore, "lsmod" shows that XHCI is not loaded. I tried "modprobe xhci_hcd", but subsequent "lsmod"s do not show it loaded. What should I do? [03:27] Roey: Reboot and see if the module is probed. [03:29] SonikkuAmerica: I...eesh. [03:29] that's asking a tall order [03:29] I have like 150+ tabs open in Firefox. [03:29] plus I'd have to reinstall the NVidia drivers upon reboot. [03:30] because apt-get clobbers them. [03:30] SonikkuAmerica: I'll see if it even starts up again. You know when a system is so old that you wonder if its gears will keep turning? ha [03:30] *will keep turning if you momentarily reboot it [03:31] at this point it's been up for 10 days. Kernel 3.13.0-39-generic [03:31] SonikkuAmerica: ^ [03:31] I suppose I'll get to it, then. [03:31] heh. Good luck. [03:36] thanks :) [03:36] see you in a bit [05:06] hey all [05:06] SonikkuAmerica: no go [05:06] Did it blow up and send you to a console? [05:06] SonikkuAmerica: it actually (effing) waits at bootup, and nothing -at all- happens until I hit ctrl-c [05:06] at which point it tells me, device under /backup not ready [05:07] :P [05:07] which means it couldn't mount /backup in fstab. [05:07] that's on /dev/sdb, and that's my usb3 backup drive. [05:07] (external backup drive) [05:07] It can't see the drive at all [05:07] Roey: Do you have UUIDs in your /etc/fstab, or just references (/dev/sdXY)? [05:08] when I connect the drive to the usb3 port, dmesg shows nothing [05:08] I do, but for /backup it's just /dev/sdb. [05:08] anyway that doesn't matter, [05:08] I beg to differ ... [05:08] because the drive doesn't get a device when it is attached [05:08] dmesg shows no output [05:08] ... esp. with removable devices. [05:09] if I had UUIDs that would be one thing, [05:09] but that doesn't address what I said above [05:09] Right. [05:09] that's another issue [05:09] We can fix the UUID thing later. [05:09] aye. [05:09] So apparently the xhci_hcd module hates your external HDD [05:13] ya [05:13] ? [05:13] This was not an issue a month ago [05:13] I do modprobe -v xhci_hcd, see no output, check with lsmod, and still don't see xhcd loaded [05:16] Roey: I would see if anyone in #ubuntu has any suggestion [05:16] +s [05:17] ok [05:19] SonikkuAmerica: I asked this in #ubuntu: [05:19] For some reason this past month my usb3-attached external backup drive is no longe rrecognized by the Linux kernel when I attach it. I do "modprobe -v xhci_hcd", see no output, check with lsmod and do not see XHCI in its listing. How should I proceed? [05:20] Roey: Now sit back and wait... while you do, see if http://askubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org have anything about this.
