No problem. Maybe I also have to apologize for my response directed at you. >> 1. How do you know it’s a Linux kernel issue? > I don’t. But it’s better to get input from upstream maintainer.

When I bought this laptop, I thought a certain amount of that price goes to “Dell’s GNU/Linux team” and Canonical, so that people are paid to look into issues. I’d love to hear more about the relationship between Dell and Canonical, and what the support includes. With Dell it’s hard enough to deal with their support, which always responds that they cannot really help, when GNU/Linux (Ubuntu) is used. > Anyway, I’ll file an upstream bug then.
