	I've also got an Inspiron 7500.  I had the same problem with
getting the 1400x1050 res so I'm using XFree864.  The 3com nic they sell
with it is cardbus, so I've got a Netgear 10/100 (that never had the auto
select problem).  

	While the sound drivers are not in the 4-STABLE source tree I have
been running them under 4-STABLE for several weeks now.
