G'Damn.<br>I just bought a dell laptop because I didnt think they would be out with Ubuntu for a while.<br>My feisty CD was in before it got a chance to boot vista for the first time. :)<br><br>Two issues though if anybody out there has a Dell XPS M1210 as well:
<br><br>Dell Bluetooth 355 module:<br>I have to issue the commands:<br>hciconfig hci0 down<br>hciconfig hci0 up<br>before it will communicate with any devices. I have added these commands to /etc/rc.local and the appropriate HAL scripts.
<br>Anybody know any other work-arounds?<br><br>Internal Conexant modem:<br>Anybody know of drivers other than the linuxant ones?<br>And how reliable are the licenced linuxant drivers?<br><br>- Karlos<br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">
