I really don't understand why there is no progress at all with this bug. It's critical. My brother just told me that he stopped using Ubuntu after years and installed Windows instead because after upgrading he wasn't able to use his machine (he's got a Dell Studio 1555, too). He isn't that much of an expert so he tried to do a fresh install which didn't work either. He couldn't reach anybody that could help him and he just uses his laptop for surfing the web and listening to music. He just wants it "to work", so - since Ubuntu didn't work anymore - he installed Windows and as he says "Now everything works just fine. I am not going back." I am sure he is not the only one. That could have been prevented if there had been a warning like "Don't upgrade right now. This version of Ubuntu doesn't work with your machine at this time."
