Dell Latitude E6510 issues

After using the laptop for a while now… there are some issues that I need to figure out.

- After waking up from “sleep”, the screen is still blank.  I read somewhere changing to a terminal and back to X fixed it for them, but it didn’t for me.  I think it’s because I’m on an Intel graphics card and the other person was on an Nvidia graphics card.

- I forgot what sequence it was, but if I’m docked, and undock it while everything is running, the screen is blank.  Or this issue was the reverse (I was undocked, then I dock it and so blank screen).

- When docked, I boot the laptop, but my KVM is not switched to the port.  I just let it load, and I switch the KVM to the port of the laptop and blank screen.

- Touchpad is not detected in X (basically, when I go to the system settings in KDE, and to Keyboard and Mouse, the Touchpad settings are disabled).  I read somewhere that it’s because the touchpad is detected as a mouse, so the touchpad properties is not valid.

Wow… I have a lot of video issues…
