Manoj,

I've just given it another shot this morning using the above kernel and 
my system still locked up after connecting the vga port and running xrandr.

As far as I can tell I've installed the kernel correctly.  The md5sums 
from the files in the deb package match the ones from the files that get 
installed to /boot/ - and I've set that kernel as the default choice in 
the grub menu.  Bit of a n00b question I know, but how can I be sure 
that I *am* actually running the above kernel?  Uname output is:

<bla> 2.6.32-24-386 #38 SMP Thu Jul 8 21:22:46 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux

I just want to make sure that I'm not giving you a false negative.  :-)

Alex
