Error message on booting up Ubuntu 14.04.2 [duplicate]

  • 772

After upgrading from kernel linux-image-3.13.0-49-generic to linux- image-3.13.0-51-generic, I am getting this error message in dmesg on startup:

[ 6.352555] mei_me 0000:00:16.0: irq 47 for MSI/MSI-X
[ 6.355708] mei_me 0000:00:16.0: version message write failed: ret = -5

[ 6.355880] mei_me 0000:00:16.0: initialization failed.

What do I do to correct this?

    Are you able to log-in? If yes, try adding blacklist mei_me line to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf.

    If this doesn't work , add the following line to modprobe.conf.local:

    install mei /bin/true and restart.
