Dell Continues Shipping Fresh Linux Laptops jones_supa writes: In its
latest move, Dell will be bringing Ubuntu 14.04 LTS to its
top-of-the-line Precision M3800 workstation laptop and the latest model
of the Dell XPS 13. Both systems will be running Ubuntu 14.04.1.
According to Barton George, Dell's Director of Developer Programs,
programmers had been asking for a better, officially-supported Ubuntu
developer laptop. This came about from a combination of the efforts of
Dell software engineer Jared Dominguez and enthusiastic feedback. Specs
of M3800: 15.6" LCD @ 3840x2160, Intel i7 quad core CPU, NVIDIA Quadro
GPU, up to 16 GB RAM. The bad news is, as Dominguez explained on his
blog, this version of the M3800 doesn't support its built-in Thunderbolt
2 port out of the box. However, thanks to the hardware-enablement stack
in Ubuntu, starting with upcoming Ubuntu 14.04.2, you will be able to
upgrade your kernel to add some Thunderbolt support.
