Addendum to post 28. I also ran the following tests, to be sure my LiveCDs created with uck, were correct, and working.
(1) Created a LiveCD with uck, from standard Ubuntu 13.04 64bit LiveCD ISO, and wrote it to USB stick, and it booted with kernel 3.8 and got into Unity. But this version as expected does not support touchscreen. (2) Created a LiveCD with uck, from standard Ubuntu 13.04 64bit LiveCD ISO, plus added the .deb packages http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1205494/ but this time no other package updates, then writing the new ISO to USB stick, but booting this up lead to the "initramfs unable to find medium containing live file system" error, as experienced in post 27. (3) Created a LiveCD with uck, from Saucy 17 Aug 13 64bit ISO, plus the .deb packages http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1205494/ and writing the ISO to USB stick. This is found to boot up ok into Unity, but it is not supporting the touchscreen. But as suspected and pointed out in posts 27 and 28, there appears to be issues installing the .deb packages, so those linux kernel mods are not getting into place. Joseph, at this point would you please let me know you thoughts on this issue of your .deb packages not installing ? Again, see posts 27 and 28 above. Until I hear back with some news on how to get these installed, or what is wrong, I can't go any further with this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1205494 Title: [Dell XPS 18] Touch screen not functioning under Ubuntu 13.04 13.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1205494/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
