I don't recall whether the chipset has worked on previous versions; I've used a live CD in the past on this machine but these days use vmware.

My XPS is within a year old, incidentally. -- no wireless on Dell M1710 laptop https://launchpad.net/bugs/92973 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
