Mostly happy with my 9300, except for two issues: missing the Fn+Left mapping to Home (covered elsewhere) and a funny issue with CTRL+Space that I haven't seen mentioned anywhere.
I use emacs fairly often and use CTRL+Space to mark regions for killing/modifying/whatever. My previous XPS13 had no issues with this, but my new 9300 now doesn't recognize LeftCtrl+Space. It recognized RightCtrl+Space just fine, also sees LeftCtrl and Space separately. But using xev to watch keystrokes, I only see LeftCtrl being held, and when Space is pressed, there's no response. When holding RightCtrl, I see events for space being pressed and released as expected. Is anyone else seeing this? Any ideas for how to fix? I can't xmodmap this away, so makes me think it's embedded in the keyboard controller.

I can't seem to reply to earlier private messages from Dell moderators, but I just updated my BIOS to v1.2.0, these issues are all still present there.
I am also facing the same problem in my dell XPS 13 9343 as Left Ctrl + Space is not working. It is very inconvenient. Can you please let me know if there is a solution for this?
