all,
thanks for you help so far. I've got other issues no cropping up in that I cannot install git due to some python package failing.
My system doesn't boot now after using the driver from the GIT repository.
I also installed networkmanager so maybe it has something to do with that, not sure.
Once I have a bootable system ill be back

Hi all,
I'm back with a booting system.
I've installed network manager and added it to state at bootup and removed the old ETH0 reference.
It now automatically brings up the interface wlp4s0.
Can I safely assume this is now working?
If so then I need to now find a way do make network-manager show up in XFCE, but I will do some research first.

If it works, yes.
Does it work? Do you get a reasonable IP number in ifconfig wlp4s0 and can you connect to your access point(s)?
Gnome networkmanager is unknown territory for me, sorry. |

all,
many thanks for your help. It is all working now. The interface error has disappeared and I can connect to wireless networks.

I resolved this chip on Dell XPS 15 9550, but there are still networks which causes kernel-panic, probably related to specific channel issue.
I discussed this here and in general main issue was resolved, but still sometimes not so I even consider replace the chip in my laptop for different one...
