Alienware 15 R4 and Ubuntu 18.04

[Stephen Partington]

I have set myself a small challenge/puzzle.

So far it is going well Aside from the alienware effects and whatnot
everything is working really well.

Except the intel GPU. the nvidia gpu is up and running nicely, but the
intel gpu is not lighting up. given that this is coffee lake the uhd 630 is
super new, but it is supposed to be supported within kernel 4.13 and i have
4.15 and the i915 driver is also supposed to work with some kernel params,
but none of them seem to be cooperating.

i can still see the hardware is there. and all the driver and kernel module
components seem to be there.

Any resource suggestions would be greatly appreciated. if anyone has ever
tacked this scenario or something like it i would love to hear your
insights.
