logout and log back in as Gnome, or some other WM and see if that works
fine.

I agree with Jason. DO NOT SEND THIS BACK TO DELL. EVER.
I had an inspiron once, and the graphics card went a little bad. i.e
there was a white line all the way across the lcd.

They were almost set to have me send it back when the tech support
person, said "open up the control panel ...", and I had to then tell
her that I wasn't running winblows. She said sorry we don't support
linux, and hung up.

DO NOT EVER buy a Dell UNTIL they support linux.
EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER.
