Right, so that is not the problem.  I'm afraid I stand by my ignore - you 
clearly do understand "during", so you were ignoring it!! ;-)

Did you install the laptop stuff during installation?  If not, try rerunning 
tasksel (it is a command that is available and seems not to require root) and 
making sure that you have got the laptop stuff as well as the desktop stuff.  
I don't know what you do about the fact that you have not at this moment got 
running wi-fi, which you did have last time you ran tasksel, but run it 
anyway and see if it helps.
