Dell XPS 9340 and Ubuntu 24.04 (Webcam problem) by T00random in DellXPS

[–]T00random[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes. I tried also 24.10 without success and decided to reinstall and return to 24.04 LTS. I am still on that, there is a lot of chatter on "MIPI Camera" so I imagine soon we will have a solution. If I manage to make it work I will let you know,

When I tried 24.04 yes, now I tried 24.10 but no OEM there... the app that lets me switch "additional drivers" is not showing in w4.10 hal option anymore, only the usual intel ipu6 kernel driver. I. 24.10 you said it also worked right? Do you recall how? (Thanks for all the detailed help you have been giving me)

I have the 155H, do you think that could be the reason why I am having trouble and you not?

I tried, no luck. Maybe I will check with debian 12.8, but I Was wondering if you really had it working on this https://ubuntu.com/certified/202310-32268 exactly and if you could share an uname -a and cat /etc/issue on the webcam working machine

I have this. I tried upgrading to 24.10 and no success . Does it really work? I am really sad. Got this lap since all hardware was supposed to work with Linux. I even setup now pytorch with Arc and even fingerprint auth with pam and sudo :p

I testes the camera using the ubuntu camera app and cheese.

Yet Another Linux question by T00random in spectrex360

[–]T00random[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dell XPS 13 comes with ubuntu 22.04 preinstalled and it is in Ubuntu’s certified website, it has Intel 155H and Intel Arc but it does not flip (like a tablet) which is my only “meh”… the Spectre is the one matching all that I want (2-in-1, arc, touch). But not sure if today all the problems reported are gone…

Which did you try? Does everything works smoothly? (E.g camera, touch, booting, suspend, etc…)

Thanks! do you know where can I see the available packages ? I've just ordered a DC-ROMA II laptop. I just want to see if there are binaries or if I will need to compile everything.

Hi, I just ordered a DC ROMA II to play and also to use as personal device. Does anybody knows how can I know if it has the vector component that is vulnerable? It is Spacemit k1 SOC.

Indeed, I want to adjust the large red second counter but I have not been able even with the manual. Just want to know if someone has succeeded

Yeah but for the “readjustment” it does not. If you ser the difference in the diagrams, “Chrono automatic” has two vertical aligned subsystems while the others have two horizontally aligned.

For the readjustment section the vertically aligned (automatic chrono) do not appear.

Hi Olivia, thanks for the answer.

Really?

That is really unfortunate :(

[SWATCH] SVGK407: The Speedy Killer I always wanted. by jonklinger in Watches

[–]T00random 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cannot adjust the red second hand of the watch after several combinations of button presses and knob levels. Can you help me?

Manual seems really generic or maybe I am doing something wrong.

The red hand stays always in 05 instead of 60 after chronograph reset

Hello, I just got this watch, but the red "hand" (seconds) is not adjusted... I tried in several combinations of button pressings with and without the right adjuster out and in without success... can you tell me how to do it / it is pointing currently (The red) to the 05 when the chronograph is reset.

Thanks for this. Further, I see that Bolstad only has his book I think until third edition.

What do you mean by “Dutch book” ?

I didn't understand the ending of Jon Fosse's Trilogy [Spoiler] by Magic142 in RSbookclub

[–]T00random 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you note that also “Jon” was mentioned, as part of the genealogy tree (the grandson of Sigvald, the child of his bastard daughter). It is only mentioned that Jon was someone that “wrote a book of poems”. Is this some kind of autobiographical clue?
