  The launchpad bug:

  https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2084808

  is supposed to fix two issues:

      errors in dell_wmi_sysman
      errors in dell_smbios

  But it ended up only fixing the first issue, remaining the second
  issue unfixed.

  This launchpad bug fixes the second issue.

products

  1. Boot to Ubuntu OS
  2. Launch $ sudo dmesg
  3. Check if the error message is gone

  [Where problems could occur]
  May cause regression
