Hi everyone. I have Ubuntu installed on my 7 yr old Dell Inspiron. This computer has about 18 driver upgrades 
I downloaded them from Dell into my external hard drive. Win is not on this computer, Linux only. What do I do? Will I be able to install these? What do I do? Oh, and one of the upgrades is BIOS which I have never upgradedā¦
@rmary if Linux found the drivers in the driver manager, it has been my experience that the installs take care of themselves - some just take a while. my first install took about 2 hrs to deal with all the updates and installs. If you downloaded them from dell, are they linux drivers? let us know more details about the drivers if neither of the scenarios above applies. Cheers!
Hey @rmary!
First, Iād recommend you open up a terminal (tap your Windows key, and it will open up the apps and the search bar). Then type in:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
This will update your entire system. However, just the fact that Dell released driver upgrades for Windows does not mean you will need them for Linux (the OS is constantly being updated). You might only need to seek additional drivers if something is either not working or having issues. 
Thank you so much. Iāll do this tomorrow. If Iām tired I can screw up just faster than you could whistle! LOL
I should have checked before installing Ubuntu. Anyway, the reason I went in and looked at driver upgrade for this computer is because few weeks back, it was either during Install of Elementary OS or Manjaro. A window popped up saying my WiFi driver needed updated plus couple others.
18 drivers. What about the BIOS driverās update? I have never updated one! Iām very Leary of messing with BIOS. Will that command update the drivers? I if so how? LOL
If I recall correctly the driver manager takes care of everything including flashing the BIOS.
When I was installing Elementary OS or it was Manjaro, I got ādrivers need updatedā popup. I didnāt even think it completely installed Iām thinking it was Elementary.
I donāt believe anything was installed, just the popup notices. But you were installing a server, right?
Doubt the drivers are Linux. Didnāt think it mattered since the Dell isnāt linux.
Hi @ vasileios. Ok, I ran the command for upgrade, update. Copy below.
I didnāt think the driver updates from Dell were for Win Software but for Dell hardware. Like 3 video drivers, BIOS update, WIFI driver.

Hey @rmary!
Coffee-team Ubuntu? Now you got me curious! How did that repository came to be? Then I did a search and found it to be a weather app.
However, since it makes your update process get stuck, Iām afraid weāll have to take the repository out - at least temporarily so that you can perform the upgrade.
You can do so by typing:
sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:coffee-team/coffee
This will clear out the perpetrator. Then you can type in:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
If later you wish to reinstall the weather app (provided youāre using it), then you can type in:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:coffee-team/coffee
sudo apt update
sudo apt install com.github.nick92.coffee
If you encounter the same issue with updates in the future, refer to the first command to disable the coffee repository! 
Thank you @vasileios . This is what I have now:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

@BigDaveAZ thank you! Iāve put Budgie desktop on to see what it was. Donāt know if Iāll keep it. Did you see that Clear Linux from Intel?
Yup, itās working good now!
I just installed davinci resolve on my Linuxmint. But it is asking to review the GPU drivers and GPU configuration under preferences.

What graphics card/chip does your system have?
