GT-I9300: Failed to send data

[sw]

ubuntu13.04-heimdall_1.4.0-0_amd64.deb from https://bitbucket.org/benjamin_dobell/heimdall/downloads on Ubuntu 13.10 amd64

I have a european model of the SGS3 running Android 4.1.2, Baseband I9300XXEMG4

Note that I already had similar issues with a Galaxy S+ (I9001) on the same system.
