Dell Inspiron 15R 5537: Touchscreen not working but display still working normally

Wed, 20 Dec 2023 08:26:39 -0700

Hi! I have a Inspiron 15R with touchscreen. About an year ago it stopped working. Sometimes it still gets to answer my touch but 99,9% of the time is does not show any response. Please, does anybody know anything about this issue? I wanted to attempt to reseat the display cables and see if I get the touchscreen back. Display works normally as ever. I have an Ubuntu 20.04 and have tried older and new versions to be sure it wasn't a driver issue. Thanks for reading my question. Fábio

Dell Inspiron 15R 5537: Integrated laptop cam stopped working but still recognized

Wed, 20 Dec 2023 09:30:04 -0700

My Inspiron 15R (touchscreen model)'s integrated webcam stopped working a couple of months ago. If I press the bevel sides of the display mounting I can get some softwares to make it work again, like MS Team. A lsusb CLI command show it is detected (Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0c45:64ad Microdia) by the OS (Ubuntu 20.04) and I have tried several new and old Ubuntu versions to try to determined if it is a driver issue - it seems not to be such. I wonder if there is a cable to be reseated that might get it working regularly again. Please, does anybody here have any idea about how to fix it? Thanks and best regards, Fábio
