Are you using Debian testing (Etch) or unstable (Sid)? If so, you can
try what is discussed in this message:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-laptop/2006/03/msg00105.html


For Debian stable (Sarge) the command

dpkg-reconfigure --priority=low xserver-xorg

has to be replaced by

dpkg-reconfigure --priority=low xserver-xfree86

and you will not be able to use the package "laptop-detect".
