Notes

Touchpad

The touchpad is a ALPS GlidePoint device and needs to be configured separately to work better than out of the box. I configured my device like described here. The only thing I did differently was to point the 'InputDevice' in /etc/X11/xorg.conf to /dev/input/alps instead of /dev/input/event# because that /dev/input/alps is a symlink to the correct event-device. I have not yet bothered about 'disabling touchpad while typing' feature. And I probably never will.

Graphics

A look into /var/log/Xorg.0.log shows a warning about a broken BIOS and the advice to add

Option          "DisplayInfo"   "FALSE"

to the Device Section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf and so I did after I experienced occational hangups un shutdown. I cannot yet verify that this solved the problem.
