I bet my wife's new Latitude 15 5000 would be problematic, it uses USB C/Thunderport for its docking station which has 2 additional video adapters in it. She's even having some issues

I have been buying off-lease used Latitudes and Precision laptops for years for the sole reason that they are always Linux friendly and solidly reliable. Most of them can be ordered new with Ubuntu.

Hi Tony, I've installed CentOS7 on a Latitude 7470 and can say for a fact that most of the suff just works, while some of it that doesn't (like HDMI, or KMS, nifty little feature I like to have) works with an Elrepo LT or ML kernels. Personally, I'd recommend the LT kernel. I also read in the RHEL 7.3 release notes that I2C support for Gen6 mobile CPUs was introduced. Thus as the

When you go to the Dell Linux site and choose shop now you are taken to a page featuring Windows 10 machines.

Ok, but still unclear where the problem is sitting. Someone tested elrepro or my vanilla kernel http://centos.cms4all.org/centos/7/kernel/x86_64/ ?

I think you need 4.4 lts kernel, for example elrepo lts. I run this time 4.8.11 with i3 6100 HP Laptop on my own special repo (Test envoirement). X11 uses a git version for the intel graphic card. If you are not a beginner. You can take a view :-) Sincerely Andy [cms4all-drivers] name=cms4all-drivers baseurl=http://centos.cms4all.org/repo/7/drivers/

Hi John, Thank you, elrepo sounds good to know about -- http://elrepo.org/tiki/About says is an extra repository for hardware support. Still not clear how to troubleshoot the problem so I know what to install from elrepo. I know that a spec file is involved in creating an RPM file; do you mean that you make your own kernel RPM?

Hi, Thanks for reading this.

I check the event log in BIOS and find that a thermal event has occurred and the system powered off to prevent damage. I can take the same laptop with Windows 7 installed and run

Please ... any info on how to proceed??? After I made sure it had the correct sha256sum, and after I burned it to DVD, and and dd'd the DVD back to a temp file and again checked the sha256sum of the temp file, all was OK. Same sha256sum. So, I rebooted the machine and it booted up from the DVD. I got a message that it was not using VNC, Then after that immediately an error came out saying
