Asus N56VZ / USB 3.0

[mac_linux_free]

Hi guys,

could anyone help me please.

I have a new Asus N56VZ with the fastest SSD (Samsung 840 Series) an I´m running Ubuntu 12.10 in UEFI Mode very stable and fast. Bumblebee and the Subwoofer are also working fine and the suspend and wakeup-time due to uefi is so fast I couldn´t believe.

Here is now my problem. How could I enable USB 3.0? I had to disable the pre-boot-xhci -mode in the bios to get my usb 2.0 mouse to work. If I enable the pre-boot-xhci -mode my USB 3.0 devices are only working after a reboot. If I plugout and back in the USB 3.0 devices are not recognized any more. And after that my Usb 2.0 devices are not working.

Please help, I don´t want to sell this good machine.

Edit: I also tried the latest Rosa Desktop 2012 Fresh on an live-usb stick and USB 3.0 xhci/ehci switch is working fine there (systemd ?) ...but I want to stay with ubuntu...

(I heard somewhere, to install ubuntu in non-uefi-mode...could that help me)

Thanks guys

...I hope Ubuntu 13.04 will bring the cure....

Hi @ all,

I just want to post, that I did a complete reinstall of Ubuntu 12.10 in uefi-mode and everything works now (except HDMI).

Have a nice week
