I tried upgrading and I got kernel panic, so I have to reinstall everything, and I sign up for a hackathon so I have less than 1h for fix this :)

Yup, Is pretty unsafe update from 15.10 atm.

Running Ubuntu 16.04 on XPS13 9530 with QHD and NVMe. Couldn't install previous versions of Ubuntu, mostly because of the NVMe. The current one works without major problems. Touchpad occasionally crashes, and many linux applications are not intended for the QHD display (which has nothing to do with the laptop, just want to mention it).

works without problems here - even palm detection is working:

This sounds interesting. If I understood correctly, this kernel patch is
currently on Xenial.

What configuration did you apply to you laptop? Are you using synclient?

Hi guys, a quick update. I have installed last night the 16.04. Until now everything seems to be working fine. except for the palm detection.

[dahabakuk]

you have to install the xorg libinput driver which is not installed by default.

@dahabakuk thanks, I was wondering that too. Is it necessary to do something to switch over to libinput as the driver? or just sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-libinput ?

Is bluetooth broken for anyone else?

[rpbaptist]

Bluetooth is working for me.

I upgraded from 15.10 to 16.04 and I have got graphical glitches since. Quite annoying. I will tweak my kernel parameters. Currently using:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash pcie_aspm=force i915.enable_fbc=1 i915.enable_rc6=7"
