** Description changed:
Dell XPSM1530
Ubuntu 8.10
2.6.27-9-generic
BIOS A12
I preformed a BIOS upgrade successfully using the following commands:
$ sudo getSystemId
Libsmbios: 2.0.3
System ID: 0x022E
Service Tag: /* service tag is here, removed because it's unnecessary */
Express Service Code: 41710678381
Product Name: XPS M1530
BIOS Version: A12
Vendor: Dell Inc.
Is Dell: 1
$ sudo modprobe dell_rbu
$ wget
http://linux.dell.com/repo/software/bios-hdrs/system_bios_ven_0x1028_dev_0x022e_version_a12/bios.hdr
$ sudo dellBiosUpdate -u -f bios.hdr
$ sudo restart
- And the BIOS upgraded successfully. When I try to use the touchpad, the
- cursor jumps erratically around the screen and is apparently triggering
- commands/characters/etc. When I plug in a USB mouse, the USB mouse does
- work correctly. Attached is my xorg.conf.
