If you are able to boot your machine, I would guess that there aren't any major problems with your kernel.
During the installation process did you install an X server? Have you gone through the process of setting up X? There you have to set video modes, screen resolution, mouse and keyboard settings, etc.
One of the most basic configuration programs is XF86Config, but there very well might be a nicer one that came with your distribution.
I must admit that I've never even tried to install Linux on a laptop, but I've done it dozens of times on my desktop PC. I will say it's one thing you don't really want to get good at :)
