[solved] ASUS Zenbook UX305FA -- lsblk does not show harddrive

Hello, I am installing Arch Linux on the recently released Zenbook UX305FA. The reason I specify newly released is because I believe that the hard drive, a 256GB SSD "Micron_M600_MTFDDAV256M", does not have driver support out of the box by Arch Linux. I have reason to believe it does have support by other distros out of the box, as per this happy customer: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2UHFYMBSR … 87-3090311
So yeah, lsblk does not show the hard drive. It just shows my USB as /dev/sda. Any thoughts?
EDIT:
Please see progress from this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comm … _does_not/
Basically, if you follow the thread, I realized that turning off secure boot means the hard drive disappears from accessibility. Another thing to note was that it would also be removed from view if it failed to load, which in my case, was due to a messed up partitiioning then file system setup.

Hi, I bought the UX32VD a few weeks ago. Most of the steps, mentioned in the article about the UX31A apply to the UX32VD too. I don't know what your problems are. All the steps are explained.
[ 8.039202] asus_wmi: Can't find DSTS
Just patch the kernel with the mentioned fix, or use the dkms variant. This will fix the can't find DSTS issue. After that, the asus-nb-wmi (or sth. like that) module will be loaded successfully, which makes most of the function keys work (except the screen brightness keys). The only thing remaining is to use the supplied hackarounds to be able to change the screenbrightness.
After these steps, I created a .Xmodmap to remap the automatic kbd. backlight key and the touchpad disable key to XF86MonBrightnessDown (or so .. can't remember the exact name) and XF86MonBrightnessUp and respectively mapped the shortcuts with xfce4-keyboard-settings (XF86MonBrightnessDown to the command backlight down, XF86MonBrightnessUp to backlight up). Unfortunately, sometimes this is a little bit buggy. The scan codes change randomly on some reboots, eg: one time it gets recognized as XF86MonBrightnessUp, and a few keypresses later as something different.
Hope they fix this issue with the 3.5 kernel, and eventually get the actual screenbrightness buttons to work.

    Hi,
    If the machine is brand new I don't see why the serial Number is missing (it is entered on to a special chip at the factory)
    However if the machine is a return and has been refurbished then the Logic/mother board may have been changed and someone forgot to put the info back to the new board.

  • Dynamic Portal Page does not show but called procedure behind it works

    Hi I run into a bug that I try to solve unsuccessfully for 2,3 weeks. Here is the problem. I have portal dynamic page that execute a PL/SQL procedure to delete and insert data into a remote app table. When I compile and execute the procedure in Toad it does not give me any error or warning. But when I execute this procedure in my dynamic page the page does not show up but I check the results and data does delete and insert. So my procedure works behind the scene but the page does not display. As I look into detail of my code I found out that when I rem out the insert statement my page does show up and delete the data but when I put back the insert statement my page does not show up and data insert to the table. Here is my code structure of my procedure in plain words. I have a procedure that have a cursor for loop that
    check if a certain condition exists if it is then it will delete data from the remote app table then insert a select statement data from 2 joins tables. Any one have run into similar situations like this and have any idea, please help. Thank you all.

    The scripts for this should have shown as:

  • Report does not show data , but data exists in the cube.

    Hi All,
    I have a situation where I could not show the data in the report. When I load data from an extractor 0CO_OM_WBS_1 into a Cube directly I am able to show the data in my report. When I load the same extractor to a DSO and from the DSO when I load it into the Cube, the data does not show up in the query. To check the data I use the same restriction and could see the data reside in the cube (LISTCUBE). I compressed the requests, still it is not showing up in the query. No aggregates create on the cube.
    It shows the data if I load directly from the extractor, but not when I load data thru DSO.
    Any ideas.

    Hi Alex,

  • When printing an AutoCAD-exported PDF file, the paper version has lines that screen does not show

    Hello,
    We were contacted by our customer, a landscape architectural company that uses our product, M-Color, (http://m-color.com) to plot AutoCAD drawings with required preferences and effects.
    However, they provided us with a sample PDF files, that contain examples of scanned drawings, that have some "ghost lines" at the drawings that the screen does not show.
    We tracked the issue and it appears to be an issue with Adobe Reader pringing. We tried many versions from 8.0 version onwards to the latest versions available in public, all represent the same issue.
    This may be an issue of the original drawing having some line that was not marked ending at some point.
    The zip file within the link below has three PDF files, two from the company that brought this issue to our awareness and the one with name "scanstation" is printed by me, and then scanned with markings to explain the issue.
    Any ideas what would be the best solution to solve this issue?

    That usually fixes ghosting...

  • Named Criteria created, but it does not show up in the Data Controls view

    Hello there,
    I wish to use a data-bound ADF Mobile ListView in one of the pages on the app. However, only entries of the underlying data that fulfill a certain condition shall be displayed in the list. The condition basically is an "Equals" test against a bind variable in the pageFlowScope. Therefore, I have created a corresponding Named Criteria for the data control - proceeded like described here:
    https://blogs.oracle.com/adf/entry/create_named_criteria_in_ejb
    The Named Criteria, in my case, has been created and saved, yet it does not show up in the Data Controls view of JDeveloper. Therefore, I cannot drag it on a UI element to use it.
    I only have the "Operations" folder where the quick guide above also shows a "Named Criteria" folder.
    Refreshing or restarting JDeveloper did not solve this.

    It was all taken care of by Gaurav Aggarwal
    He got me all fixed up, Thank you for your concern.

  • Itunes 10.2.1 does not show remote speakers option

    I have been having a strange issue on one of my laptops. I have two laptops - one with Windows 7 64bit and Windows XP 32 bit. On both laptops, I was able to connect to the airport express to stream music to my home theater (receiver) till a few months back. Both have the latest version of Itunes - 10.2.1. Now, the Windows 7 laptop continues to work fine but the Windows XP laptop is having problems. *Itunes does not show the remote speaker option. The airport utility does not recognize the airport express.* In the Windows Firewall exceptions, there are entries for Bonjour (port 5353 UDP), Bonjour Service (mDNSresponder.exe) and Itunes.exe and all are checked. Even if I disable firewall, it does not resolve anything.
    The airport express is connected through an ethernet cable to the Belkin Wireless N router. The wireless mode for the airport express is switched off. The firmware on the airport express is version 6.3.
    Few differences between the two laptops
    Windows XP: I use a Belking Wireless N Notebook card to connect to the Belkin Wireless N Router. Antivirus is "McAfee VirusScan Enterprise + Antispyware Enterprise 8.7.0i"
    Windows 7: I use the inbuilt wireless to connect to the same router. Antivirus is "ESET Smart Security 4.0"
    Can someone help? I have researched the forum and tried the following things but still does not help.
    1. Tried uninstalling Itunes and Airport Utility and reinstalling
    2. Tried disabling Windows Firewall

    I solved my problem I tried several other programs to play my music and since nothing seemed to work, i started deleting other software from my computer and apparently Uniblue's RegistryBooster was the one that caused the problem. Now able to enjoy music from my computer again

  • Itunes freezes when connecting and ipod does not show up

    When I connect my nano 3rd gen in windows vista using itunes 9 my ipod does not show up and itunes freezes. the ipod remains with the connected screen and I cannot close out of itunes. Any help would be wonderful... Thanks!!

    I have (finally)solved the problem with my iTunes freezing! Here's what I did:
    1.I backed up my entire music library to an external hard drive.
    2.Then I completely uninstalled iTunes 9 from my computer.
    3.After a re-boot I then completely deleted my entire music library. (this can be a little scary so I double checked my music library back up on the external drive)
    4.I Googled iTunes 8 and found it at
    http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/06/28/apple-itunes-8-2-and-quicktime-7-6-2-di rect-download-links/
    5. I downloaded it but before I installed it I copied my music library back to my computer. I did not copy everything that was in my original iTunes music folder however, I only copied the music,album art work, applications,games,Tv shoes, and podcasts folders. I placed those folders in a new folder called iTunes on my computer. I did not include any of the iTunes database files eg: .itl / .xml / or .itdb files as these were created in iTunes 9.
    6. Now I opened iTunes 8.2 and added all of my music and other media content.
    7. Next I attached my iPod nano to my computer. Then Windows automaticly open a window asking me if I wanted to scan for problems or continue without scanning. I had windows scan for problems and once that was done my iPod nano began to sync. Oh what joy!
    I think, and this is only a guess based on what I've read here on Apple's discussion pages and my own experience, that there is a problem/conflict or bug with iTunes 9, Windows Vista and the 3rd -4th generation iPod. I will NOT be upgrading to iTunes 9 until Apple has addressed this issue. It seems to me that there are a lot of people having similar issues.

  • 80 GB Ipod Classic does not show up in itunes or Win Vista Machine

    Hi, I recently updated my itunes software with ver.8 and since then my 80 GB Classic ipod does not show up in itunes or in my computer. Hence, I am not able to sync my itunes. When I connect my ipod it just shows "Connected - Eject before disconnecting" and just freezes there. Pls help?

    Hi. When I connect my ipod to any microsoft device, sometimes my ipod doesnt connect. I cant charge it, or restore it as it behaves like a useless piece of plastic.. I get a yellow bubble 'Device not recognized or has malfunctioned'
    This problem is bizarre! I cannot find anyone who actually has a solution for this problem! Apples standard answer is for me to reinstall my drivers or update itunes or windows. Done it. No solution yet.
    My ipod works fine.... sometimes. Its a completely unpredictable problem. Ive googled this problem and so many ipod classic owners have asked.. solutions ive tried: the 5r's, updating drivers, It managed to connect once, but now it wont. My ipod normally works fine on my PC, XBOX, laptop and Mac.. but sometimes, unpredictably, it wont be recognized by anything apart from the mac. For a month it would not connect at all and I took it in to an Apple store where they told me it works fine. Its not my PC.. its up to date, and theres no reason why it doesnt work on my XBOX because some times it does.. last night it did, today its broken again, I suspect tomorrow it may work. This is SO frustrating!!
    I have alot of experience in PC's and normally I can solve a problem by process of elimination, updating and reinstalling, but in this case.. everything seems fine. My only idea is that maybe its my Sync cable?? Which also makes no sense because it generally connects fine on the mac - and, why would a sync cable be unpredictable.. surely it either works or it doesnt. HELP PLEASE!!

    When i connect the external drive it is being connect to a usb port.  When i go into the setup of the laptop it does not show an external drive being connected to the usb port.  My cd drive that came with the laptop does work, i tried it in my laptop, but on my daughters machine the cd drive is not being shown on the computer or in Device manager.  I upgrade out laptops from windows vista 32 to windows 7.

  • Graphics Card Does Not Show Up In Device Manager (Re: Installing AMD Video Drivers - Windows 8.1 (Step-By-Step Tutorial)

    This tutorial is a step-by-step tutorial on how to "fix" issues of a new graphics card not appearing in Windows 8.1 Pro, or not appearing (as a device) in Device Manager, or it's not being detected by Windows 8.1.
    This is the "second part" of a Step-by-Step Tutorial on how to install AMD Radeon graphics card drivers in Windows 8.1 Pro.
    GRAPHICS CARD IS NOT DETECTED AND DOES NOT SHOW UP IN WINDOWS 8.1 DEVICE MANAGER
    This problem can appear if the video card is not installed properly in the PCI slot and as a result the card is not detected in device manager. Check the physical connections again, reinsert the card properly in the PCI slot, check the connections (including the power cables going to the video card, and ensure that the fan on the graphics card is spinning and the card does have power and is properly seated/inserted) and then install the drivers from the manufacturer’s website.
    If the video card is in fact installed properly, but the problem of the video card not being discovered/found by the operating system persists, then try these following methods below to check if this solves the problem.
    Method 1:
    First, I would suggest you to run the following Microsoft Fixit to get the problem automatically detected and fixed. This Microsoft "fixit" App checks if the device is currently disabled or turned off or the driver is not installed.
    Hardware devices are not working or are not detected in Windows.
    http://support.microsoft.com/mats/hardware_device_problems/en-us
    Method 2:
    Sometimes, some devices in device manager are hidden due to corrupt or missing drivers.
    Follow the steps below to show hidden devices in the device manager and troubleshoot accordingly.
    Press the Windows key + X
    Select Command Prompt (Admin)
    Type set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1 and hit enter
    Type Start DEVMGMT.MSC and hit enter.
    Once in Device Manager hit the View menu and select show hidden devices.
    From here, remove each instance of the AMD or Nvidia card you see as well as each unknown device. Exit Device Manager and reinstall the latest drivers you can find for your graphics card.
    After you install the drivers, reboot and see if you get any different results.
    If the above solved your problems and the Graphics Card is now working and is now being properly detected/displayed in Windows Device Manager:
    If your graphics card is now being detected by Windows 8.1 in Device Manager, but has a "yellow exclamation" mark (or video drivers are not found or not properly installed or the device is disabled) then install the latest graphics card drivers and proceed with this Step-by-Step Tutorial on how to install AMD Radeon graphics card drivers in Windows 8.1 Pro.
    Method 3:
    If methods suggested above does not help, I would recommend you to contact Apple/AMD/NVIDIA to get the latest chipset, BIOS, graphics card drivers installed properly.
