| Rosika1 | Hi. I´m using Lubuntu 16.04.5 LTS, 64 bit right now. My update-manager tells me that 18.04.1 LTS is available and asks me if I want to upgrade. But what happens if my internet-connection goes down during the upgrade-process? | 13:50 |

| ask-ygU5AP56 | hello | 18:28 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | Lubuntu 18.04, ThinkPad T61 | 18:28 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | DVD-ROM combo drive doesn't respond to eject button press | 18:28 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | nor is there a /dev/sr0 | 18:28 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | (the drive works, I have installed the OS from it, it also ejects fine prior to booting the OS) | 18:28 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | the notebook sits in a docking bay (IBM series original dock) | 18:29 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | any ideas as to how to track this issue and fix it? | 18:29 |
| wxl | i'd suspect that's a more general question than a lubuntu one | 18:29 |
| wxl | you might want to get more eyes on it at #ubuntu | 18:29 |
| wxl | that said, do you see the device in `lspci`? | 18:29 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | there's nothing on it in dmesg; nor lspci; nor lshw | 18:31 |
| wxl | is the drive in the docking bay? | 18:32 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | nope, in the notebook itself. | 18:32 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | I can try booting without the docking bay | 18:32 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | maybe that's messing things up, though I doubt; it's a mechanical kind of dock | 18:32 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | more of a port replicator + charging | 18:32 |
| wxl | it's worth a try | 18:32 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | alright, let's see if that changes things | 18:33 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | brb | 18:33 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | well, no. | 18:36 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | that made no difference. | 18:36 |
| wxl | ok, so that's out | 18:36 |
| wxl | the fact that lspci doesn't see it is remarkably weird. have you looked in syslog/dmesg to see if there's anything telling? | 18:36 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | is there any kernel modules necesary for the latest l/ubuntu to be able to see sata/pata cdroms? | 18:36 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | no; there's nothing; the kernel doesn't see the drive. | 18:37 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | there's /dev/sg0 and /dev/sda* | 18:37 |
| wxl | shouldn't need anything | 18:38 |
| wxl | and besides, if modules were missing, the kernel should still see it. it just wouldn't be able to do anything with it. | 18:38 |
| wxl | i.e. it would be listed in lspci | 18:38 |
| wxl | so i'm at a loss. i'd check with #ubuntu | 18:39 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | cheers | 18:39 |
| wxl | sorry | 18:39 |
| ask-ygU5AP56 | no worries | 18:51 |
