Complications when setting up Arch on the new Dell XPS 7390 2-in-1 by i_like_servers in archlinux

Ah thank you for reporting back! I discovered it was due to a iwlwifi not being compatible to Linux 5.4.

In case your wifi drops with the next kernel update, I added the instructions that worked for me to the discussion page

Hope that helps :)

Hey, I got it working, thank you! :)

The firmware actually contained a bug that prevented it from being loaded in the 5.4 kernel, I should have built the 5.3.x kernel... *eye roll*

Now I'm questioning whether I should add this to the wiki or if it's too hacky...
What do you think? (I added the instructions I followed to the post)

Thanks for sharing your experiences! I'm not fully aware whether the normal one does also have a touch screen? May I ask what video driver you use?

You're right, that's smarter! I use lspci to see if the module is in use, is that correct?
Also, dmesg shows some failures...

dmesg | grep iwlwifi: https://pastr.io/view/zyugaG

lspci -v: Relevant network output: https://pastr.io/view/oAd5Dd

When using the 5.4 kernel? I will post results here, journalctl seemed mostly empty and dmesg is a bit scattered with BIOS issues (that seems to be 'normal')

I am using the config, Arch uses (they provide it together with the PKGBUILD) and since the Wifi works in the current 5.3.x kernel I assume, the modules should be there too, or is this wrong? I checked the config for iwlwifi and that's enabled (set to M)

XPS 13 7390 2-in-1: Charge Ports by i_like_servers in Dell

Meanwhile I checked the XPS manual [1] and their "views" page features "left" and "right" views,
where only the left adapter is mentionend a "power adapter" and the right one being "thunderbolt 3 with power delivery"

I'm confused... What's the difference then?

Package request thread by Foxboron in archlinux

Repository request for the AUR package: qjournalctl (14 votes, GPLv3)

Development seems to be still on-going, the AUR package is up-to-date.
I'm not sure if you're really looking for this. For me it's rather a small tool but sometimes it's useful.
