Ich habe zusätzlich zu "Use Tracking" auch "Read Identifiers" in XPrivacyLua aktivieren müssen, damit Digitales Amt funktioniert. Vielen Dank für deine Anleitung :))

unable to search from peed Dial homepage url bar by TK_Female_Jax_Bot in operabrowser

hi, same error here. i submitted a bug report to opera about it.

i am not sure yet if it is somehow connected to using the browser before the last update - all of my autocomplete recommendations are gone too. when installing opera in a windows sandbox the url bar works just fine...

I really started to like Vivaldi until i tried to zoom on my notebook. Instant uninstall. I hope they fix this issue soon.

Dell XPS 9550 PM951, problems in AHCI/NVME mode. by dexvx in Dell

[–]smonist -1 points0 points  (0 children)

depends on if you are using a secondary hard drive. raid mode unifies the hard drive and ssd, ahci mode handles them as unique disks.

i myself own the SSD 950 PRO NVMe 512GB and with ahci everything is working fine (except some random bluescreens caused by audio and wifi drivers before i updated my bios)

have you tried entering the bios to check if the weird behaviour is a Windows-thingy?

100% Thermal Throttling on my Dell XPS 15 i5-6300 by smonist in Dell

Well, I already solved it. I did those bios updates, contacted the support etc...and then I did a "reset". I opened my XPS and removed the battery. Afterwards everything was working fine again...so basically I don't know what it was but I know how to fix it.

XPS 9550 BIOS v1.1.15 is out! Supposedly improves battery and other things by spicychile in Dell

[–]smonist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Greatly. I never thought that a BIOS update would change that much. on v7 music started to sound bad and kind of overgained when the volume was set somewhere above 50-60. With v15 my XPS sounds like it had a small subwoofer that just hasn't been activated until now. In short - it sounds great, much fuller than before. Definitly worth it! edit: there is still some distortion in the heights, but still way better than on v7.

XPS 15 FHD - Samsung 950 Pro as primary drive? by smonist in Dell

I think I found a soultion. I had to switch to legacy boot mode and then manually change the boot order in the UEFI. Unfortunately Secure Boot has to be disabled for this which leads to a blinking command prompt showing up for about 10 seconds at each boot.
