[Bug 1036102] Re: Card reader not working on Dell Inspiron M301Z

 

Julien Olivier, thank you for testing Trusty. As per http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/Product/inspiron-m301z-amd an update is available for your BIOS (A05). 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 just 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.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete
