I have been using this excellent guide to the TX 1000 to help me through this:
Trackpad:
- disabled tap to click (it was driving me crazy!)
added some lines to my etc/X11/xorg.conf file in the section Driver "Synaptics":
option "TapButton1" "0"
option "TapButton2" "0"
option "TapButton3" "0"
Sound:
Using Yast2 - discard the intel sound card, then add a new one - pick nVidia MCP51(hda) from the list.
I added the option model=3stack (didn't try without it, though - might not be necessary.)
The heaphone sockets don't work, and I haven't tested the sound input either.
USB:
adding pci=nommconf and irqfixup on grub boot options fixed unrecognised usb devices.
Wifi:
Got wifi working by using ndiswrapper-gtk with driver file from a Dell website
(just open the exe as a zip and extract the .inf and both the .sys files, then point ndiswrapper-gtk at the .inf)
TouchScreen:
The touchscreen technology in the tx2000 is completely different to that in the tx1000 - its a wacom device. Yes - there are 2 Wacom devices; 1 for fingers, the other for the pen. It looks like there is currently no linux support foreither, so we'll just have to wait. :'(
I think this is the relevant thread.
