[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1191008] Re: Dell XPS 18 touchscreen not functional
I also have the Dell XPS 18 touch screen all-in-one type computer. Because Windows 8 is on the computer, and no way to re-install it (MS does not provide), I can only boot directly to Ubuntu 13.04 from the LiveDVD written to USB, which I have done successfully. However Ubuntu is not providing touch screen support out of the box, but neither is LinuxMint 15 which I also tried. The only way I've gotten Mint and Ubuntu to have some touch screen support is running it as a vm guest under VMware Player. Anyway, with Ubuntu 13.04 booted from USB (LiveDVD), here is the output of dmidecode per your request. root@ubuntu:~# sudo dmidecode -s bios-version sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date A05 06/04/2013 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1191008 Title: Dell XPS 18 touchscreen not functional Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have tried using an 13.04 x64 live DVD to run Ubuntu on a Dell XPS 18, and the touchscreen is not responsive.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1191008] Re: Dell XPS 18 touchscreen not functional
One quick addition to me previous post - the BIOS update website given in a previous post, says the latest BIOS is A05 7/8/2013 while on my XPS 18, dmidecode says A05 06/04/2013 I downloaded the one dated 7/8/2013 and ran it, but as I suspected, the installer says my computer with BIOS A05 is already at the latest. Not sure what the date discrepancy means. Also, this URL http://lii-enac.fr/en/architecture/linux-input/multitouch-devices.html lists apparently supported and some partially supported multi-touch devices for Linux. Don't know if anyone is aware if the XPS 18 touch screen device is on the list at the above URL. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1191008 Title: Dell XPS 18 touchscreen not functional Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have tried using an 13.04 x64 live DVD to run Ubuntu on a Dell XPS 18, and the touchscreen is not responsive.
