@bitinerant,i was able to return mine for a full refund. i advise you to do the same. my theory is that due to the architecture of the vostro v13 and latitude 13, it will be a ***very*** long time, if ever that any linux distro will support it. the synaptics touchpad is a child of a broadcom usb hub (part of bluetooth as far as i can tell) and broadcom is notoriously closed-source. too bad, as the vostro v13 is a very nice machine, but designed specifically according to the wintel paradigm.
i've lost all faith in dell as a result of their overt lack of interest in supporting ubuntu and their horrible technical support. canonical is also fooling themselves with their sham of a certified hardware testing and certification program, and quite simply ignoring their own prime directive, bug #1. best of luck, cheers -- ubuntu "certified" hardware misleading, and key contributor to lack of progress on bug #1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/632293 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
