Hi, I did the same as @Ben Alex on my DELL Latitude E6510.
- Some issues with screen flickering during a minute or so after X has started, but then OK. - ARandr recognizes my laptop screen as (null)1 while System > Preferences > Monitor says it's a Seiko Epson Corporation 15"@1600x900 (16:9) @60Hz which is wrong, the highest res I have is 1440x900@60Hz but it displays ok - Resume from suspend simply freezes with some messages concerning a wrong version of AppArmor for this kernel preventing cache read/write - I *still* cannot disable the touchpad altogether, but vertical scrolling works (not horizontal) - The microphone patch does not work (but that's probably because it's not the same hardware :p ) Hope this is helpful, Steven 2011/1/21 Ben Alex <550...@bugs.launchpad.net>: > Dell E4310 with BIOS version A05 failed with kernel > http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.37-natty/.
