I created a dump file to help troubleshoot an issue and I don't know what device this is referring to nor how to disable write protect. The line reads:
I will take a SWAG and ask if you have a memory card currently plugged into the printer. I assume all of the other removable USB devices are accounted for... If so check the RW switch on the side of the SD card.
What USB memory devices are connected to your computer. This appears to be your printer or a USB memory card reader. Unplug/replug the printer to see if sde disappears/reappears.
Without the majority of the devices plugged in, the mouse & keyboard are usb devices, I created a dump file,dmesg > dump.txt and found a sde with different numbers:
Code:
[ 7.143551] sd 4:0:0:3: [sde] Attached SCSI removable disk
The full file is attached. After plugging the devices back in, I ran lsusb and got:
Code:
Bus 002 Device 010: ID 05a4:9866 Ortek Technology, Inc.
Bus 002 Device 008: ID 046d:08ad Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Communicate STX

Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0a48:5014 I/O Interconnect Mass Storage Device

The first four and sixth of that list are my usb devices.
