Cold boot? The very >first boot after assembling? Something else? By bad state I mean that neither touchpad nor keyboard are working. They are both unresponsive. You can fix this by adding i8042.reset on the kernel command line, or removing the battery and waiting long enough. By very first boot I mean when the laptops are received from Dell and booted in Linux. If you cold boot with a working non-Dell power supply (with same electrical characteristics), you can reproduce the "first boot" bug as much as you want, and laptops won't work unless you remove the battery and wait long enough OR add i8042.reset on the cmdline.
