Try these 2 web-sites, which have user install reports: http://www.linux-laptop.net/ http://tuxmobil.org/mylaptops.html Note that many of the dificulties reported on these sites are due to people using laptop-unfriendly distros like Red Hat or Slackware :-) Mandrake is far more laptop-friendly, especially 10OE with kernel 2.6 and its improved ACPI and other harware support. There's many people on the list with Dell laptop experience, so don't hesitate to ask for further help. John.
