    I'll play a supporting role. My t61p has been stolen but I'd be interested.

    I did have just that. It was stolen by my land lady who lives at an unknown adress in another state. I still may take her thruogh small cliams court because I have the canceled check. Of course, the number that I have is her cell phone.

    Lol. I sorta neglected this thread for a reason, but im back for a little bit. My advice it to completely erase the current drivers installed, and then install the new synaptic drivers. That worked on my C90s, whereas installing drivers over one another did not.
