Re: [Bug 1082833] Re: Failed XPS 15z boot, producing: "[Firmware Bug] ACPI(PEPG) defines _DOD but not _DOS"
Hi Chris
Thanks for this. I've not had any further issues since I reported this last
year. Will wait until the next LTS before I do any more tinkering.
Cheers,
Quin

Title:
[Dell XPS 15z L511z] Failed boot, producing: "[Firmware Bug]
ACPI(PEPG) defines _DOD but not _DOS"
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I am aware of the acpi=noirq situation, and follow the setup here
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport/Machines/Laptops/Dell/XPS/15z
What happened is after an update this week, booting ended in a frozen
black screen (exactly as has been reported before). Reinstalling 12.04
worked fine. However, after a kernel update, I got the same black
screen on reboot.
Booting with 3.2.0-29-generic works (not 3.2.0-33-generic).
WORKAROUND: uses acpi_backlight=vendor dell_laptop.backlight=0
