My coworker recently bought an x60s and we installed Edgy on it.  There
are a few problems, and I would like to hear how you avoided/solved
them:

  * With the -686 kernel you get dual-CPU support, but software suspend
    stops working (the half-moon starts blinking, but the laptop won't
    suspend); with the -generic kernel suspend mostly works (it often
    crashes on resume with a blank screen), but you're limited to one
    CPU.

  * Sometimes the laptop freezes for about 30 seconds and then starts
    working again.  This seems to happen just before a Skype message
    appears.  Something to do with the sound card?  When the laptop
    is frozen you can do nothing with it (the mouse cursor doesn't
    move, Caps Lock doesn't work).

  * The wireless ipw3945 card sometimes drops the connection.
    ifdown followed by ifup helps.

  * falconseye segfaults on startup.
