04 LTS certified by Dell with the 64GB / fingerprint SKU, so the hardware is signed off as a workstation Linux platform. UVC webcam, no IPU6 trap.
Ubuntu certified: Precision 3591 (64GB, Fingerprint) →Show full report
IPU6 trap. RTX 2000 Ada means the proprietary nvidia driver and PRIME render-offload, same pattern as the ZBook Firefly 14 G11. Fingerprint reader has no working libfprint driver on Dell business class and stays dead. s0ix only, expect modern-standby drain. SO-DIMM DDR5 means real RAM upgrades, rare in this tier.
- Fedora Minor setup
- Wi-Fi : works
- Bluetooth : works
- Fingerprint : broken
- Webcam : works
- Audio : works
- Suspend : needs tweak
RPM Fusion akmod-nvidia for the RTX 2000 Ada, then PRIME offload. Red Hat also lists RHEL 9.2 as a supported OS on this chassis, so the workstation Linux story is sturdier than on consumer Dells.
