[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1123403] Re: Installer is blocked by UEFI Secure Boot
Andrew, as per http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/drivers an update is available for your BIOS (2.17). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Thank you for your understanding. ** Description changed: - The release notes for Ubuntu 12.10 claim [1] that UEFI Secure Boot is - supported and suggest that I should expect an "it just works" experience - on new hardware. - - However, when I try to boot an Ubuntu 12.10 64-bit bootable USB stick - [2] on a brand-new Acer Aspire V5-171, the following message appears: - - 2.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1123403] Re: Installer is blocked by UEFI Secure Boot
Given the number of bugs that the Kernel Team receives during any development cycle it is impossible for us to review them all. Therefore, we occasionally resort to using automated bots to request further testing. This is such a request. We are approaching release and would like to confirm if this bug is still present. Please test again with the latest development kernel and indicate in the bug if this issue still exists or not. You can update to the latest development kernel by simply running the following commands in a terminal window: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade If the bug still exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to Confirmed. If the bug no longer exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to Fix Released.
