Post installation questions, iPC 10.5.6, Dell x300

Hey,

I managed to install iPC OSX86 10.5.6 on my Dell Latitude x300 laptop and I'm quite happy with what I have so far (wireless - WPA included, bluetooth, sound, usb, etc). The specs are: Pentium M 1.4Ghz, 640MB Ram, 80GB HDD (more: http://www.dell.com/downloads/us/pro.../x300_spec.pdf).

Things I selected during the installation:
Voodo Kernel 9.5
Video: GMA900
Chipset: LegacyAppleIntelPIIXATA
Ethernet: AppleBC5751Ethernet
Wireless: Intel 2200
Audio: AC97
Patches: PS/2 Mouse Fix, ACPI Fix, IOPCIFamily.kext patched, Seatbelt.kext 10.5.5

I was wondering what would be the steps required to -try- to get my laptop to 'sleep' or 'hibernate' (google what term, look where, etc.)? Currently it just freezes when I click 'sleep' on the apple menu.

I currently change the brightness in the bios, is there any way to change it within the OS? I gave it new keyboard shortcuts (my keyboard didn't have the default keys), but it doesn't work.

I didn't select 'power management' at installation time, can I enable it now or do I have to re-install? (I did select all the applications except 'Marvin's AMD Utility', one of them could help me, right?)

Is there anyway to -try- to enable 'scrolling' support in my touchpad? (nothing fancy, it would be nice not to have to move the cursor all the way to the right or use the up/down keys)

I wouldn't want to waste anyone's time, I'm just asking to 'get pointed in the right direction'; links, search terms, software, facts about what I can/can't do, would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
