Might be an IOMMU problem. Does this post seem relevant?

I know that board also has VIA USB 3.0 chip.

Ahhh....that explains why it's working from Live vs. installed. I was thinking ANOTHER kernel 24 bug, but glad it was simple to get working again.

So, does that fix also make the hub(s) work when connected?

Can you provide links or reference to the hubs you've tried? I see you do have the standard USB 3.x 20-pin connector on your MB. I'm wondering if there is a limitation on the connector for use with only front ports (no hub). Also, please run the following command from Terminal and post back the resu...

A product ID of 32771 is a head scratcher, unless that is decimal. Normally, USB product ID (and Vendor ID) is 16-bit expressed in four digit Hex (0000 - FFFF). I agree with thx-1138 on syntax, although I would probably code the Product ID as "0003" vs "3". It might be a good idea if the 32771 doesn...

Device a36d, I believe is the USB 3.x Controller. I'm not seeing any USB 2.0 controller in the list. Motherboard 20-pin is normally for USB 3.x. Any chance USB is disabled in BIOS? If you have any rear USB 3.x ports, are they working? Have you tried pulling the power plug on the system and letting i...

Running the sibling board -D3H in my specs. The only tip on getting my system stable was using the new "Typical Current Idle" option in BIOS. That stopped the idle freeze problems reported here and on other Linux boards. Not seeing all your current integration specs, tough to say if the move is a pr...

SSD’s must not require that much power because I have no issues running an SSD from a USB port.

The USB cable has 5V (ONLY) for powering USB devices and a typical SSD is 5V.

Glad to hear the drive is working OK with standard desktop connection and power.

You're welcome.

Does this manual in the section, pages 21-24, on Linux Ubuntu (Mint is based upon Ubuntu) help?

Please run the following command from Terminal and post back the results.
Edit:

I'd also like you to run the following command in Terminal while connected to the problem HDMI monitor (not detected) and post back the results.

The first case, where the VGA was active but not connected, I'm guessing you returned the Laptop from Sleep or Hibernate when the VGA was present before it went into sleep or hibernate state. Is that the possible explanation for that case? The second case might be tied to a problem with the HDMI por...

If I can get it to work on a desktop does that mean with a laptop I can’t do anything with it? I assume my guess that it is a 3.5" Seagate SATA HDD is correct. If so, the internal SATA power connector on a Laptop would normally not have 12V, as internal laptop 2.5" SATA drives (HDD or SSD) only use...

*I did have the HDD connected into the laptop mobo via sata extension. I then tried connecting the HDD via disc drive enclosure and usb cale thru a usb posrt." OK, so you connected to a laptop and also tried an external enclosure via USB. If this is the 3.5" drive (or similar) at Newegg (see link),...

Which burner utility are you using, and are you suggesting the utility doesn't see the blank media after inserting in the drive?

If the card functions as hot-swap (like eSata), it probably is worth a try. However, it might rely on driver support, e.g. Windows, for the hot-swap function. Yes, I can make my true IcyDock eSata work, i.e. plug and pull drives IN MINT (not just Windows), so I can only suggest that it has a good ch...

There are eSATA PCIe cards. The ones I've seen are usually for external connections, similar to the built in eSATA rear ports on motherboards. Is the cable from the case dock using SATA or eSATA for its connector? There is a difference. If you've never seen an eSATA port, this wiki has a picture. ht...

It might help to run inxi -Fxz again from the working HD system to compare with the SSD install. I'm guessing your monitor is connected to the add-on nVidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti, and not the integrated Intel GPU. Different Kernel and/or not installing the nVidia driver from Driver Manager are possible...

The reason is the lower Mesa version which prioritized an installed intel driver. As the driver description however states, it's discouraged to use it and removing it will make the server use modesetting instead. With Mesa 18 it skips the intel driver automatically so it doesn't matter whether the ...

Interesting that the modesetting driver is still loaded and the Intel driver didn't load. Nah, that's working correctly, the old intel driver is only for ancient hardware. Agree somewhat....but, why did it load in my linked example? I'm just curious if there is a tie to Kernel or some other update ...
