FWIW, I installed the X server (R3.?) from Precision Insight last week
as I'm running Debian 2.2 on my TP600. Works like a charm and comes
with sample XF86Configs that work. If you get error messages about 'no
screens' thne you're running X11 R4.? and you can search this mailing
list for how to fix XF86Config-4. Don't forget to upload your
successful XF86Config to the web :-)
