Update: I talked to the Dell support today, to get to speak to ProSupport. Turns out I am required to have purchased specifically the "developer edition" and not a random Dell XPS 13, else my Ubuntu issues don't justify a refund. Nice.
But the support people were helpfull in that they found out, that the "developer edition" is advertised to have a different wifi chipset compared to the windows versions. The Ubuntu ones have the 6230 and not the 6235: http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/xps-13-linux/pd http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/xps-13-l321x-mlk/pd These chips are really different: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/centrino/centrino-advanced-n-6230-brief.html http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/centrino/centrino-advanced-n-wimax-6235-brief.html -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1159145 Title: Centrino Advanced-N 6235 wireless connection on Dell XPS 13 crash with "iwlwifi: fail to flush all tx fifo queues" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1159145/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
