After some discussion with Kamal Mostafa (kamalmostafa), we've agreed that this 
is actually a dupe of bug 1163720.
It is a kernel bug with some intel based laptops (not only Dell) in UEFI mode. 
Some patches are currenlty being tested...

Title:
  Black screen on Dell XPS 13 (L322X) with Ubuntu Gnome 13.10 x64 live
  media in UEFI mode

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've booted from a live USB media of Ubuntu Gnome 13.10 on my Dell XPS 13 
(L322X) and the laptop screen is just black. Nothin happens if I press the fn 
key to adjust brightness.
  I've connected an external monitor and the desktop is there, up and running 
(I'm using that session to report this bug right now).
  On the same laptop, by upgrading from Raring (and staying with kernel 3.8) 
the laptop screen and brigthness adjustment works fine.
