I have the same laptop, Ubuntu 7.10 pre-installed, but I upgraded to 8.04
immediately. I have no such problems, maybe you should consider the
upgrade.

Other approach: The laptop is certified hardware and you should have
received toll-free support phone numbers for the Dell Ubuntu support with
the laptop. Contact them, you are entitled to such support. BTW, I checked
with the Dell support before upgrading and they have no problem with that.
