Thank you for sharing.
Can you write if you are using vanilla kernel provided with ubuntu 17.10, or custom version? anyway, Which version of linux kernel are you using to make it happen?

I suspect the wd15 to be the cause of your troubles, not the laptop.

The DELL docking stations do not work well: the TB15 is a nightmare, and most wd15 owners are not happy with it.
That is what...

hello

personnally, I have purchased the DELL DA200 , which provides Ethernet/USB3/VGA/HDMI connected to the TB3/USB-C port.
With Windows10, I could verify that all ports are doing the job, but...

I have two USB-C TB configs (work / home):
- the DA200 dongle: works as expected (VGA output, USB, Ethernet). I still did not test the HDMI
- USB-C to Display-Port (got it from Google store) and...

The onboard broadcom Wifi card is not supported by ubuntu 15.10, but you can buy a $20~ Intel 7265 wifi board for replacement.
It won't fail, and will not break the warranty.

I did it, and very...

Hello, I am proud owner of this brilliant laptop XPS13 9350, and want as well to connect 2 screens on it.
Still don't get it to work with HDMI on the small USB-C adapter (DA200), but VGA/Eth/Usb all...

Hi f0y,

Glad to read you solved this issue.
Can you tell me how you turned off hand sensor ?

thanks a lot,
Stephane

As far as i can remember, I did not do anything that special: wifi running out of the box, but i did not try bluetooth (no device to test that).
Yet, I am not using unity, still stick with gnome...

I am running 120GB SSD on Ubuntu since 10.04 with no problem at all, upgraded fine to 10.10, 11.04 afterwards of course.
The only trick I applyed was to add the "noatime" option for the drive in...

Hi
I have a Satellite R830 (almost same hardware as you, surprising. It is R830-136 which has an amazing 128GB SSD), wiped out win$ and put Ubuntu 11.04 x64 on it.
Replaced also RAM to have 8GB....

Thank you very much for the tip; I will try that new kernel ASAP.

have a great week-end

Hi airper,

this is really good news, I have to say that my laptop does not freeze as much as it used to... It does not freeze any more, as long as I stick with one power source (either battery or...

Thank you for the tip, I do confirm it works.

please can you change the thread as 'solved'?

best regards

Hi,
does the BIOS have anything to do with your wireless card?

great news! I am happy you now have regular network access, even if it may be a workaround.

For my fan going crazy, it is only when the laptop freezes (ie: no more display refresh, mouse and...

Can you post which Ubuntu distro you are running on that laptop?

thank you

This is really weird: we both seem to run the same hardware and the same distro, and yet we are dealing with very different issues.

kernel freeze and crazy fan: still there, but less frequent on...

Yes thank you, I even posted a little bit on that thread.

Hope you will manage to make your wireless working!

Hi Airper,

I am facing some other issues here: suddendly the laptop freezes and fan goes crazy. I have to manually switch it off :-(
Also, I cannot use my mouse with VMware Player, and fighting...

Hi airper,

just got my laptop back from toshiba tech support.
I can now confirm that I have the same network chip as you, with the same e1000e driver: so I'm gonna make further tests and keep you...

Hi airper,
one question comes to my mind: it looks like your home router does not accept any connection attempt from your laptop, either wired or wireless.
What is the brand/model of your router?...

sadly, my satellite R830 136 broke last month, so I am back to my good old Vaio until it gets back from Toshiba tech support labs.
Looks like the motherboard or something similar died after 5weeks,...

Hi airper,
if you're not familiar with this:

eth0 is your wired link
lo is the local interface for internal use
ppp0 is your 3G link, currently having IP address
wlan0 is your wireless...

@airper: sorry, I meant :

/etc/init.d/networking restart
Also, what's the terminal giving when typing

ifconfig
I am curious to see what network interfaces are showing up
