Dear Jeremy, Hi, Thank you so much for contacting me. My laptop was very badly crashed last week after Intel update. My laptop's Ubuntu is just start running a few days ago. My laptop is Dell XPS-13 developer edition (Ubuntu operation), but somehow, they installed new hard disc with Windows. I used Dell's recovery application to reinstall Ubuntu system.
I tried to fix the problem as your direction, but I received the error message as below. noriko@noriko-XPS-13-7390:~$ sudo apt install --reinstall backport-iwlwifi-dkms [sudo] password for noriko: E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), is another process using it? Ubuntu asked me to report the problem, so I filled the form. I am glad I had done because I didn't know without your notification. This is running little bit funny. I am experiencing regularly that the double click is not always working. I tried to fix the issue at settings, but it comes back over and over. If you have any suggestion for the problem, please provide me your guidance. I have an exam tomorrow, so I would like to fix after it. Therefore, you don't need to provide me the advice immediately. Thank you so much. Regards, Noriko ________________________________ From: boun...@canonical.com <boun...@canonical.com> on behalf of Jeremy <1908...@bugs.launchpad.net> Sent: December 20, 2020 1:35 PM To: norikoora...@hotmail.com <norikoora...@hotmail.com> Subject: [Bug 1908802] Re: backport-iwlwifi-dkms 7841-ubuntu2~ubuntu18.04.1: backport-iwlwifi kernel module failed to build I would try sudo apt install --reinstall backport-iwlwifi-dkms Reboot, for some reason you don't have the latest version of the package from bionic updates that is version 7906-0ubuntu4~18.04.2 -- You received this bug notification because you are subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1908802 Title: backport-iwlwifi-dkms 7841-ubuntu2~ubuntu18.04.1: backport-iwlwifi kernel module failed to build Status in backport-iwlwifi-dkms package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Sorry, I have no idea about this.
