XPS13 9434 with Broadcom WiFi - what Linux to install, how to get factory image?
Hello all,
Recently I've purchased XPS13 model 9343 with Windows 8 and I want to use Linux on it.
How can I get factory image for Ubuntu installation? It is usable enough? I would stay on 14.04 if possible.
Currently I run self-installed 14.04.3 and having some issues, but I want to have 'supported' software configuration, if possible, before I'll ask help.
No Events found!

Although I have an XPS13 9343 Developer Edition which came with Ubuntu 14.04 preinstalled, I had also to do some troubleshooting and the following links may be also be helpful for you :

I highly recommend you just do a fresh install of 15.10. It makes things so much easier than trying to patch things for 14.04.
Just do the fresh install, in additional drivers enable the broadcom driver and you should be set.
