Hi

I've applied all BIOS updates for my laptop including the pulled one
for Spectre/Meltdown & ME bugs the other week
http://www.dell.com/support/home/uk/en/ukdhs1/product-support/servicetag/8k5w662/drivers

If it helps, I don't have this issue in Windows but I rarely have it booted

I thought it might have something to do with an ACPI failure (see bug
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=198051)

Regards

Mike
