Ok, dmesg looks good from mei driver point of view. Do you have network slowdown (or other problems that manifests with 3.8) with this kernel? The resetting message as you have in log usually means that is some is wrong with FW/HW - mei driver not receiving reply in timely manner. To debug it future, you can enable dynamic debug for mei driver : echo -n 'module mei +lfp' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control echo -n 'module mei_me +lfp' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control and wait for next reset -- 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/1176577 Title: [HP Compaq dc7700 Small Form Factor PC] mei unexpected reset in kernel 3.8 Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “linux” package in Arch Linux: New Status in “linux” package in Fedora: Unknown Bug description: Right after upgrading kernel from 3.5 to 3.8 (Ubuntu 13.04), the syslog got flooded by a large number of such messages: (cut) May 5 15:33:15 compaq-aldo kernel: [ 205.064042] mei 0000:00:03.0: unexpected reset: dev_state = RESETING May 5 15:33:21 compaq-aldo kernel: [ 211.076029] mei 0000:00:03.0: unexpected reset: dev_state = RESETING May 5 15:33:27 compaq-aldo kernel: [ 217.088035] mei 0000:00:03.0: unexpected reset: dev_state = RESETING May 5 15:33:33 compaq-aldo kernel: [ 223.100039] mei 0000:00:03.0: unexpected reset: dev_state = RESETING May 5 15:33:39 compaq-aldo kernel: [ 229.112045] mei 0000:00:03.0: unexpected reset: dev_state = RESETING (cut) This was associated by non reliable ethernet functionality, i.e. transfer of large files from my Ubuntu box to a local NAS connected via ethernet got hanging with no other apparent errors or diagnostics: nautilus copy just stopped transferring data, leaving the copy window there with the progress bar stopped. I tried to reboot, but this behaviour is perfectly reproducible. This is one of the first syslog lines got from that kernel: May 5 15:30:15 compaq-aldo kernel: [ 0.000000] Linux version 3.8.0-19-generic (buildd@roseapple) (gcc version 4.7.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.7.3-1ubuntu1) ) #30-Ubuntu SMP Wed May 1 16:36:13 UTC 2013 (Ubuntu 3.8.0-19.30-generic 3.8.8) I attach the whole syslog from boot of that kernel. On the same box, launching a previsous kernel (3.5) works flawlessly. For the time being, I removed 3.8 kernel from my box, now running 3.5.
