Dell venue 11 7130 i5

Post by markosjal »

As along time Linux Mint user I decided to install mint on Dell venue 11 7130. This is older 2 in 1 hardware to be used as tablet.

What a joke.

No wifi nor bluetooth support

On screen keyboard is a joke in fact has 'z' and 'y' keys transposed.

No screen rotation support

Some apps like Firefox Will not scroll unless scroll bars are used

I can not believe Mint is so far behind the hardware.

Please post an inxi -Fxxxzr report. This will give us a concise overview of your hardware and on how Mint sees it.

Here is how to generate the report and post it:

Boot from your installation media (USB/DVD)
Open a terminal window (Ctrl-Alt-t). Make it fullscreen to avoid unneeded linebreaks or chopped lines. Execute the command

Code: Select all

 inxi -Fxxxzr 
exactly as it has been typed here.

Mark the complete text output which the command will display with your mouse.
Press the keyboard shortcut <Shift><Ctrl>C to copy the marked text into the clipboard.
Enclose the results between the code markers by selecting </> from the mini toolbar above the textbox where you type your reply then paste <Ctrl>V them in your reply between the code markers [code]Results [/code].

The results will help us to help you.
