Dell often use odd hardware, particularly in their laptops. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions for a discussion of how to change boot options.

Thanks Mick,
I'll have a look later. I feel I should add that this particular laptop has been running on various versions of Ubuntu successfully for several years - this is the first such problem I've had. I suspect that some hardware support has been dropped or changed in this kernel + modules, which is why I'm having the problems.
Cheers Steve
