Same thing for me as Klaus Reimer . I'am using the dell inspirion 640m with the latest bios update from dell rev 05 I believe. and working now back on edgy for a month and half . so i still cross my finger every time I boot but for so far it seems that dell did something in the bios updates . My 5 cents
