dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-firmware_1.79.9_all.deb (--unpack): trying to overwrite '/lib/firmware/ar3k/ramps_0x31010000_40.dfu', which is also in package bt-dw1705-firmware 0.1
New Dell 3437 preinstalled Ubuntu laptop not working
I got a new Dell 3437 laptop, when ONed the laptop ubuntu started to install intself. But at the end some packages didn't installed properly like "Update Manager". After that I am not able to update or upgrade and the laptop came with 12.04 version. Meanwhile the wireless driver got updated, now I am not able to use Wifi also. I tried to reboot the system and install again, but it is not working or I don't know how to do it.
I checked with Dell Support they are not understanding, the support guy told to install Windows, then they will help, I told I dont't want windows and purposefully taken Ubuntu the guy didn't understand at all.
Now I planned to download a ubuntu 12.04.03 LTS and then install again in the laptop.
What is the suggestion. This is a brand new Laptop bought yesterday only.

The Ubuntu Software Centre is working but I am not able to install linux-firmware, the error is seen in the above output

Actually, after a little more research, I found out that the package bt-dw1705-firmware is NOT an Ubuntu package at all.
linux-firmware is an official package, but bt-dw1705-firmware is not.
So you need to uninstall the bt-dw1705-firmware package as explained in post #6.
You can do the package comparison here:
