One quick addition to me previous post - the BIOS update website given in a previous post, says the latest BIOS is
A05 7/8/2013 while on my XPS 18, dmidecode says A05 06/04/2013 I downloaded the one dated 7/8/2013 and ran it, but as I suspected, the installer says my computer with BIOS A05 is already at the latest. Not sure what the date discrepancy means. Also, this URL http://lii-enac.fr/en/architecture/linux-input/multitouch-devices.html lists apparently supported and some partially supported multi-touch devices for Linux. Don't know if anyone is aware if the XPS 18 touch screen device is on the list at the above URL. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1191008 Title: Dell XPS 18 touchscreen not functional To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1191008/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
