I would suggest using one of the generic video display drivers to get X up
and operating. It's been my experience that the drivers that are listed
don't alays work. There may be something about your Laptop that doesn't
like these drivers. I'm fairly certain though that the generic ones will
work for you and they very well may give you a good display.
