I am genuinely surprised. Despite 3.17 having worse issues (bugged display dimming as well), 3.18 RC1 appears to work fine without any paramaters at all: Linux XPS-15Z 3.18.0-031800rc1-generic #201410192135 SMP Mon Oct 20 01:37:04 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Looking forward to 15.04 I guess :) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1382909 Title: Dell XPS 15Z Requires Kernel Parameters to Boot Correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1382909/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
