Right, so that is not the problem. I'm afraid I stand by my ignore - you clearly do understand "during", so you were ignoring it!! ;-) Did you install the laptop stuff during installation? If not, try rerunning tasksel (it is a command that is available and seems not to require root) and making sure that you have got the laptop stuff as well as the desktop stuff. I don't know what you do about the fact that you have not at this moment got running wi-fi, which you did have last time you ran tasksel, but run it anyway and see if it helps. Lisi
