<br />
== UEFI ==<br />
<br />
Before installing it is necessary to modify some UEFI Settings. They can be accessed by pressing the F12 key repeatedly when booting.<br />
* Change the SATA Mode from the default "RAID" to "AHCI". This will allow Linux to detect the NVME SSD.<br />
* Disable secure boot to allow Linux to boot. This may be re-enabled at a later point. See [[Unified Extensible Firmware Interface/Secure Boot#Using a signed boot loader|Using a signed bootloader]]<br />
* Disable ''Early Logo Display'' under ''Pre-boot Behaviour''. This allows S1 sleep to function, as well as S3 sleep on some models. See [[#Power Management]].<br />
<br />
== Firmware/BIOS Updates ==<br />
<br />
Dell provides firmware updates on their [https://www.dell.com/support/home/product-support/product/xps-17-9700-laptop/drivers support page] and can be installed by simply placing the exe file on a fat32 drive or the EFI boot partition and selecting the file in the BIOS update page after pressing F12 at boot time.<br />
<br />
== Power Management ==<br />
<br />
If the system seems to have a high power usage when in sleep mode, S3 sleep can be enabled by adding {{ic|1= mem_sleep_default=deep}} to the [[Kernel parameters]], however, as of the time of writing, S3 sleep mode does not seem to work for models with NVIDIA GPUs when on battery power. Users of variants with no dedicated GPU report S3 sleep to be working.<br />
<br />
=== GPU ===<br />
<br />
Using the integrated intel iGPU instead of the dedicated GPU can provide power savings. There are various methods for utilising [[NVIDIA Optimus]], however using [[PRIME#PRIME render offload]] seems to have the best performance on the 9700.<br />
<br />
== Bluetooth ==<br />
<br />
Bluetooth does not seem to work after login. However a simple workaround is to run:<br />
<br />
# systemctl restart bluetooth<br />
<br />
== Fingerprint sensor ==<br />
<br />
The fingerprint sensor can be used by installing the proprietary Ubuntu driver released by Dell and Goodix. This requires a different fork of libfprint {{AUR|libfprint-tod-git}} - available on the AUR and built from source [https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/3v1n0/libfprint/-/tree/tod from the upstream repo]. This is a newer version intended for use only with touch-based sensors such as the one on the XPS.<br />
<br />
{{warning|This driver is proprietary, closed source and only distributed in binary form}}<br />
<br />
The proprietary driver can be obtained from the AUR: {{AUR|libfprint-2-tod1-xps9300-bin}}. Alternatively, it can also be manually installed from the [https://git.launchpad.net/~oem-solutions-engineers/libfprint-2-tod1-goodix/+git/libfprint-2-tod1-goodix/?h=devel Dell repository] by extracting the debian file and copying its contents.<br />
<br />
The rest of the process is identical as that described on [[Fprint]] - just make sure not to install the version of libfprint on the main repo as it conflicts with libfprint-tod<br />
<br />
== Thunderbolt ==<br />
The following thunderbolt devices have been tested:<br />

<br />
== Known Issues ==<br />
<br />
=== Audio ===<br />
As of the time of writing, the builtin audio does not work, however this should be fixed upon the release of pulseaudio 14.</div>Jakhttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=Dell_XPS_17_(9700)&diff=636331Dell XPS 17 (9700)2020-09-24T22:48:20Z<p>Jak: Add bluetooth workaround</p>
