Sorry, I missed the rest of this thread, but was wondering if I can
help, as I have a Dell C600 Latitude with X happily humming along.
Can you send me the thread, or shorten it to what is and what is not

I have just reinstalled debian on my laptop, and had some problems

And don't worry other answers will be on list.;)
