Barton's blog updated with fix information

New info here:

http://bartongeorge.net/2015/08/28/recent-fixes-for-xps-13-developer-edition/

I'm still concerned that for those of us who upgraded to the 3.19 Kernel, even with the patched Broadcom driver, Bluetooth simply doesn't work. I've not called prosupport about channels 12 and 13 yet, but will as soon as I have time, and will be curious to see what the resolution is.

The patched wireless driver does indeed stop the kernel panics, which I could repeat easily before. I now get errors sporadically in network manager when moving around the house, requiring a restart to resolve, but it's a step forwards.

As others have said, the trackpad is still a long way off being fully functional in "modern" mode (tap to click) due to the non-existent palm detection.

    If you get a black screen with the caps lock light blinking, that's a kernel panic related to the wireless chip, which does appear to be fixed now (for me anyway).

    If it's something else, check the other threads on the forum, there are a couple of graphics related ones on there.

    Mhmm from what  you write it  doesn't  seem  like  I will  put back the  broadcom (I've replaced it myself with an intel) and try  again  the patching!

    I  look  forward to  the  bios A06, as you  can  see from  this  message the  space is still  bonkers
