I have tried Ubuntu 18.04, which is the one that Dell ships this laptop with, and 19.10. I have also tried the latest versions of Kali, Mint, Manjaro, and even Intel's Clear Linux distribution, all with the same screen issue. Kali is the last distribution I tested, and the one that I currently have installed. I have tried booting with 'nomodeset', and it doesn't even boot to the login screen. Is there anything I can try? I bought this laptop so I could get into Linux, so, as you can imagine, I am pretty inexperienced, and might require some more 'explaining' in some of the resolution steps I've read here. Also, I can confirm I do not have an 'Early Dell logo' option in my BIOS.
Hi, I also have the same issue. I'm on an XPS 13 7390 and have screen distortion as seen on https:/ /www.youtube. com/watch? v=PwaBATDK9Lw
