Eliomar da Cruz Menezes, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
As per http:// www.dell. com/support/ home/us/ en/19/product- support/ product/ latitude- e4310/drivers? os=biosa an update to your computer's buggy, insecure, and outdated BIOS is available (A14). When you update to this following https:/ /help.ubuntu. com/community/ BIOSUpdate how does this improve the situation?
For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https:/ /help.ubuntu. com/community/ ReportingBugs# Bug_reporting_ etiquette .
Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.
Also, you don't have to create a new report.
Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible:
1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an apport-collect):
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
2) Please make a comment specifically advising on how this improves the situation.
3) Please mark this report Status New.
If it's not reproducible, please mark this as Invalid.
Thank you for your help.
