Interesting tags.

Which upstream needs testing exactly? Do you want the latest mainline kernel tested with CONFIG_USB_LIBUSUAL and MODULES=dep in initramfs.conf? That would be very easy for me to do (on kubuntu 12.04).

That said it looks like libusual was removed in v3.7. At least usb/storage/libusual.c was. I have a suspicion the only reason for it, "Low Performance USB Block driver" as above, was removed at some point.

I guess you're also calling the BIOS "outdated". It was upgraded at the time of purchase, which was indeed 2012-10. In case you're tempted to ask (?!), I'm not going to update it.
