I had a guess to what the problem might be. It appears that the kernel resets the link at 3 gbps, and retries a few times with longer and longer timeouts for the drive to reset, then reduces the speed to 1.5 gbps and retries only one more time to soft reset it before giving up. I wonder if the drive only is capable of 1.5 gbps and also requires an long time to reset, but my attempt at googling for hps specifications on this drive failed miserably. I hate HP, I hate HP, I hate HP, oh my god I hate HP.
If you can find specifications for this drive it would sure make me feel a little better, and if it turns out that it only supports 1.5 gbps, then I could possibly be on the right track. -- blu-ray drive gets softreset failed errors https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/668392 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
