Hatem MASMOUDI, as per
http://www.dell.com/support/troubleshooting/us/en/19/Product/latitude-e5520
an update is available for your BIOS (A13). If you update to this, does
it change anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Thank you for your understanding.

** Tags added: bios-outdated-a13 needs-upstream-testing regression-

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete
