Drivers that are near unobtainable except when using the preinstalled OS is a NO-GO.
But it's probably something trivial. I know stories about bleeding edge wifi hardware drivers not being provided by a year old LTS Ubuntu (well du'h). And of course there is the gpu driver shism. But i'm guessing.
Can you elaborate on the changes made by dell?
