...and it can't find my wireless card and my touchpad. The former, I don't care about as much, but not being able to use the touchpad pretty much kills the mobility factor of the laptop.

It's an hp Pavilion zd8000 series, for what it's worth.

Thanks!

Can you post up your xorg.conf file? Particularly the mouse settings part. Also check out www.linux-laptop.net as someone else may have a fix for the problem.

Will do.

For a general refernace, however, is cutting and pasting even a concept in Linux (haven't had a lot of time to experiement and figure it out myself in the midst of finals week.) and if so how do I do it? (Sorry if that's a really lame question.)

No need to cut, simply highlight all the text you want to copy and then go to the place you want to paste it and do a middle click. ta daaaa!
