[Bug 1205494] Re: [Dell XPS 18] Touch screen not functioning under Ubuntu 13.04

 

Chris,

I made a Saucy (Ubuntu 13.10 daily) Live boot USB flash drive from the 64-bit ISO ownloaded from /daily-live/current.  
Unfortunately it did not fair well.  It booted up to Unity, but from there the mouse pointer and Unity itself were locked up or unresponsive.  The only thing I did find working to some degree was the Volume buttons on the left of the XPS 18 computer caused the Ubuntu-based volume control to come up and change volume (until the volume is down/off then it locks up), and the Power button on the right side of the XPS 18 appears to have Ubuntu re-act to it but shutting down.  But with Unity up, I was not even able to open a terminal, nor exit Unity to a shell, as Unity was locked up and the mouse.   Let me know what you want to do from here.
