Results so far:

I installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS 64-bit on my X61, followed by Virtualbox 3.2.4,
with a Windows 7 vm.

After much Googling, I still have a couple of  PITA issues.

- After every host reboot, it seems that the kernel vboxdrv driver goes
away.   I found lots of people reporting this issue, with some suggested
solutions -- however nothing seems to work.
- I'm trying to disable all screen blanking and power management, as this
really screws up Virtualbox.  I've tried everything I can find, but I guess
I'm just not getting it.  I keep getting the screen blanker which asks for
my password.

Any suggestions on how to resolve these issues?  Other than these, I'm
pretty happy w/the 64-bit version so far.
