  When I go to the control panel mouse and pad touch I can see the external mouse and SynPS/2 Synaptics touchpad recognized by the system... both are enabled, but the touchpad does not work

  Problem, it's that Toshiba does not support Linux so you will not be able to find lots of information about Linux on Toshiba laptops.

  Try to check some Linux forum. You may be able to get a useful tip to other Linux users.

• Satellite L50-B-166: Webcam + microphone does not work under Linux

  Hello

  I'm under Linux Slackware 14.1 with kernel 4.11 on a Satellite L50-B-166.

  Webcam and microphone are not detected by the system, and I can't find the firmware and the module for them.

  Can someone help me?

  Hello

  I get the Webcam work properly in Fedora 22 core 4.0.6 (Incidentally, kernel 4.11 does not yet exist, so what kernel do you use )
  I suggest therefore that you check the software for the Webcam settings is not simply disabled:

  F2 at the STATION
  Go to advanced > system configuration
  Make sure the Webcam is turned on.

• Satellite L50-B-192 with Linux, no compatibility issues?

  Hello world

  I would buy a new PC, almostly Toshiba Satellite L50-B-192.
  In fact, I heard that a lot of people found that it is difficult to install linux, and many could she!, any body have had such an experience?
  Would you recommend buy me this model. I'll use for some applications, graphics, programming and development.
  Any advice will be highly appreciated.

  Hello

  I think that you will have a good experience in running a late version of Linux on this model. Just trying to get a 4 core...
  The biggest problem I've seen with L50 - B, it's that the maps non - Intel WLAN don't work under Linux yet.
  But your model appear to have an Intel WIFI card, so you should be fine.
  If you download and install the kernel 4.1 I think even shortcut keys can behave very well.

• Satellite L50-C-215: failure to install Win7 via the USB port, pb and toshiba.bg bug ' workshop

  Satellite L50-c-215 is a laptop sold without optical drive or OS.

  We bought it today.

  
  Questions:
  -We were told "it is compatible with windows 7", but what a salesman said, everything can be downloaded from the Web from Toshiba site
  -While watching the Web from Toshiba site, a link says 'no system operating inside'. Link is corrupt
  -2 "official" companies are listed for the Bulgarian Web from Toshiba site are wrong: nobody told on the phone that they are not official support from Toshiba

  
  Technical questions:
  -J' tried to put several Windows 7 ISO on a USB key, using the official Microsoft tool and Rufus, but I got error that says "CD/DVD Driver is missing."
  -In some forums, it is said that test the spirit of the thing that a USB 2.0 can solve if USB 3.0 will fail. Each USB failed.
  
  Sales question:
  -Although the European commercial law says people have a little more time to restore a non-working product and be reimbursed, when we returned to the computer at the Technopolis shop a few hours after the purchase, employees told us ' problem is not hardware: we do not cancel the sale, we can take over the computer and give your money. " "Problem is software: see with Toshiba.
  The best we could get was the address of a computer service non-Toshiba to try to ask if they might be able to install Windows 7

  
  I already spent half a day working on it
  What can we do to install Windows 7 or get the computer returned and refunded?

  Tried Tnings at night:

  -> Intall Ubuntu 12.04: card WiFi can't work, no Ethernet cable to update from the Internet

  The drivers are on the website of Intel, but solution install require packages to download on the internet, not USB

  -> Last Debian version: error starting in the command line

  -> 14.04 installed, Ubuntu box checked during installation to use the Intel Wifi device
  Re: software WiFi cannot connect. Spent a few hours on forums to try to understand how to install the Intel USB drivers. Does not work.

  For people who want to buy this model, try to get a player of optical disk to install Windows, a good cable to Linux, update or be prepared to spend time and money for the service simply be able to use the computer.

  Oh, another thing: Technopolis company is not able to provide you with enough information before buying a product. I will not say that they rip off, but almost: especially to overseas buyers, buy refusal refund to anyone who is not able to have an argument that was screaming in Bulgarian with them.

• Question of the animation to boot Windows on Satellite L50-A-1F2

  Hi guys,.

  I installed Linux on my Satellite L50-A-1F2, and now when I start Windows, after the grub is sometimes very good, sometimes I see the stripes, or the Windows boot animation biased... sometimes, like now, I see the image of grub instead of the classic Windows logo. Everything works fine, Windows loading perfectly... but if anyone can solve this problem that makes me happy.

  Thank you! Sorry for my English!

  Hello

  I think that your problem is a gesture of challenge related to the Linux installed.
  Probably, Boot Manager Windows 8.1 has been replaced by GRUB in Linux and that's why the start-up procedure search differently.

  I have no solution for you, but recommend you to check a few FAQ and HowTo to configure GRUB

• Satellite L50 - USB connectivity problem

  Hello, new to these forums and just buy a Toshiba Satellite L50.

  The problem is when I connect my iPhone in a few seconds it will disconnect, reconnect, disconnect plug. Then a pop up according to sleep and fresh loan, then another pop up will say choose what to do with this device, and then it will disconnect and reconnect etc. and loop messages and connection.

  I disabled sleep and even cool thing. I allow it and put the laptop to sleep and I can charge my phone and it is not disconnect and reconnect.

  For the moment, I turned off the iPhone into Device Manager and its load although if I try and allow him to do as stated above.

  It is not a problem of windows I Linux out there, and it will do the same to connect/disconnect. "Buzz-buzz" vibrating door very quickly.

  It is not the phone or cable as these work well on another computer.

  So can anyone explain what this problem and how to fix it.

  Footnote: BIOS Version 1.90

  Thank you!

  Hello

  As far as I know the laptop supports different USB ports.

  Have you tried to connect the smartphone on different USB ports?
  If this isn't it.

  More I recommend you to check the parameters of each device to save energy.

  In-> controller device manager USB-> properties-> last tab (power management)

  Here you will find an option to turn off the device to save power.
  This option should not be enabled. In the event that the option is checked, remove the mark.

  It would be interesting to know if the problem will happen again if you use RAM in the first place again.

  Anyway, the key is that everything is working OK again.

• Satellite L50-B-16V - Starcraft 2 performance decreased after update BIOS?

  Hello

  I played Starcraft 2 for awhile on my Satellite L50-B-16V using average settings quite fluently, however, now the computer's performance has worsened considerably. Framerate decreases with the increase of number of units in the game, in the end that I get framerate as images 1 / 3 sec, even low settings.

  The only thing that has changed since the game worked fine, was updated to BIOS to version 2.0. Could it be the cause of the problem? And if so, is it a safe way to downgrade the BIOS to 1.9?

  Thank you.
  Karel

  Hello

  The BIOS update should not affect the performance of the game.
  But after the BIOS update you should definitely take the default settings of the BIOS (by pressing F9 in BIOS). Then save the changes and exit the BIOS.

  In addition, you must check the AMD/ATI settings in the ATI Control Center.
  As I m not wrong no you can increase the performance of the GPU but of course, it would increase GPU s heat dissipation and temperature s notebook would be upward.

• Toshiba Satellite L50 - B of the Bios date and time to reboot

  Hello.
  I have Toshiba Satellite L50 - B for more than a year. I upgraded the RAM to 8 GB and it works fine. But the last 10 days of the BIOS date and time keeps restarting by default whenever I turned off or in hibernation laptop. My battery is dead, but I'm not, it reloads all the time and restart the BIOS after that I have unplug the phone charger. I think that the CMOS battery is dead, but when I open the laptop there is no CMOS battery. Someone told me that this model has a kind of Flash for the time of the bios chip. How can I fix it?

  Get a new battery and will be all good.
