Dell XPS15 9590 here running for one year, CentOS7 but running kernel 4.9.75-204.el7.centos.x86_64 specifically. I also use an external DELL dock adapter WD15 to get eth0 plug and more (this model really lacks plugs, you could also use a DAx00, WD15 or TB15/16). Everything works fine but: - frequent wifi disconnections (this can be a problem when running vmwares or during downloads), you might need to search about this (I didn't yet), - the main fan becomes a bit noisy w/ time (one year old), - the missing pageup/pagedown keys, mentioned by Patrick: I mapped my own keys to get them (fn+pageup/down), but this keyboard is really not done for devs or keyboard-intensive tasks even if the touch is nice (the arrow keys are too small, real pageup/down missing), - the trackpad is very big, forcing you to raise the hands when you type and even when you don't type. Gnome Mate settings set to disable it when typing but this doesn't work. Tried disabling the trackpad when a mouse is plugged in, doesn't work yet (I need to dig on this). Trackpad totally disabled for now. Regards, -- wwp
