Dell continues to implement LinuxPC

Article title: Dell continues to implement LinuxPC. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

As we all know, Dell has been preinstalled with a Linux operating system desktop PC for one year, although it has not yet announced how much profit the PC products preinstalled with Linux have brought to Dell. However, at present, Dell has still cracked a series of drivers and technical difficulties, and has provided a stable hardware platform for the Linux community, simplifying software maintenance for the Linux PC to the maximum extent. However, no other PC manufacturers follow these steps. Therefore, Dell has become a computer vendor that promotes Linux PC in the global computer industry and promotes the marriage of PCs and Linux systems.

It is reported that Dell has simplified the technical difficulty of upgrading Linux PC products through actual tests, which far exceeds users' imagination. In addition to Dell's efforts, Round Rock, headquartered in Texas, is also trying to provide technical support for Linux users. The company created a Dell Linux entry on Wikipedia to introduce each pre-installed Linux PC model and its features. We can see patch fixes, upgrade the kernel, and install some special upgrade packages under the entry "on the target instance", which is very useful for Linux PC users. Dell has repeatedly said that Linux PC is not intended for entry-level users. The brief description of the patch on the Wikipedia entry also reflects the correctness of the general disconnection.

According to reports, in order to upgrade Dell to the latest Ubuntu 7.10 system named Gutsy Gibbon, testers downloaded Ubuntu 7.10 Live CD from the information provided by the wiki. Dell has officially created corresponding ISO system image files for different models of hardware platforms to ensure that appropriate drivers are provided for each model of hardware devices, especially NVIDIA graphics cards. Ubuntu 7.10 Live CD will soon be successfully upgraded. Therefore, you do not need to download the standard Live CD from the Ubuntu website, and then install and upgrade it after burning. If your Linux OS has some hardware devices from other locations (not officially configured) on the desktop PC, it is best to use the standard Live CD on the Ubuntu website, then find the driver for the specific hardware. This must be a time-consuming project.

Currently, the Ubuntu Live CD package provided by Dell contains the appropriate drivers for each model. At first, the disc did not contain the driver required by the ECS 530n, but Dell has solved the problem. Any user who encounters this problem can download the Wiki information to re-burn a correction driver with an e1000 controller and a 32-bit NVIDIA graphics card. You can also obtain the CD by contacting Dell customer service.
