Linux (Slackware 13.1) on the Toshiba Satellite C660D - 10 p

Hi guys. I want to buy the laptop shown in the topic, but I first wanted to ask if anyone had any experience with Linux on it and maybe even with distribution Slackware 13.1. Is it portable and compatible linux? Another issue is whether someone has a link to Toshiba's official information on this laptop. I could not find it in the session of products from the Web site. There is no such model - ' C660D - 10 p. However, I have the printed sheet "Technical Details" of her saddle (store), but there is no info on the chipset and the specifically-wireless interface model

Any time the worksheet says:
CPU: AMD Athlon II P340 (2.20 Ghz)
Physical memory: 4096 MB DDR3 (1066 Mhz)
Graphics card: Radeon HD 4250
HARD drive: 320 GB

Webcam, mic, wlan, lan, vga, card reader, usb

To summarize:
T1) do you think Slackware and cell phone are compatible?
Q2) where is the official information of the Toshiba on this model?

---
Thx a lot.

Laptops are specific products of these countries and if this laptop model is offered in your country simply check out the official page of Toshiba.

What about Linux?
As you probably know he is not officially supported by Toshiba so until you wait here check the Linux section on this forum or try to visit some of the Linux forums. There you can often find about Linux on laptops different reports including different Toshiba laptops.

  • 15 "version of the Toshiba Satellite R630

    I am migrating from a 13 "MacBook Pro because, frankly, I can't stand his fragile keyboard. As a writer, most of my creative energies are hi-jacked by rage whenever I have do typo. Indeed, which is very common. I've identified on the Toshiba Satellite R630 as one with which I do business the keyboard and I'm a fan of Toshiba computers in general.

    However, I have enough desire to a screen 15 '' rather than another 13 "one. Anyone would be able to recommend a very similar to the R630s of Satellite from Toshiba model which comes with a 15 "display? I realize I will probably have to compromise on battery life, but I'm willing to do that. Ideally, it would take 4 GB of RAM, an identical, good keyboard map graphics and excellent display.

    My budget is between £650 and £1,000.

    Any help much appreciated.

    What do you think about 16?
    I mean that the keyboard or similar (and keypad) is used on the Satellite A660.
    I have 3 months now and it is great piece of hardware.

  • I need to restore the with the Toshiba Satellite P200 recovery disk

    I also need to restore my P200 with the Toshiba CD. There is a note on the Pocket: insert the CD, power off, turn on with press F12, select the drive and follow the explanations. I wonder if it is possible to reformat just the 2nd disc.

    I can confirm what sascha wrote. I have Satellite A300 with 2 hard drives and via recovery DVD you can simply install OS on the first HARD disk. The second HDD is not visible for a second and Toshiba software engineers have designed to work with the first HARD disk only.

  • It is not detected on the Toshiba Satellite A300 - 1 5 support page

    Hi guys,.

    Please do me a favor. I'm in Dubai, I bought my Toshiba laptop in Dubai. This is the Satellite A300 - 1 5, Sr.No. 98487056Q.
    The problem is: whenever I try to find my laptop using Toshiba and the technical support web site, it does not detect my machine.

    I tried Auto detect, put serial no in the box, the two option, but all returns with the same result - not available in the region.

    Until what I detect my machine, I am unable to identify the driver and therefore impossible to check the updates.
    It is strange that Toshiba is not by site Web from Toshiba.

    Can someone help me?

    It may happen that the system somehow cannot identify the model of laptop, but to download drivers, it is only important to know the first part of the reference.
    If your laptop belongs to the series of PSAG4E and on the Toshiba download page, you can set exact notebook model and see what drivers are available.

    Have you tried choose your product manually?

  • Cannot start the Toshiba Satellite A300 in normal mode or safe mode.

    Original title: Normal and safe mode start two taped please wait

    Hi my problems started last night when I tried to open my laptop (Toshiba Satellite A300 Windows Vista)

    In normal mode starts near the top of the screen loads fine up please wait...
    I left on until this morning that then the screen turned black and nothing was clickable.
    I can't boot mode safe either, as it happens the same thing.
    Sometimes when I try and start it tells me that the C drive has something wrong with it and what are the fixing.
    A warning saying that this file is corrupted and unreadable left me with a scintillating display that fluctuated between black and the background of vista.
    I managed to log on once while my office quickly froze and I had to close my laptop.

    Startup Repair cannot detect all problems. I restore Windows to an earlier date with the system restore but that did nothing to help and when I tried to restore the system to an earlier date of even the sign of a catastrophic failure rises.

    I'm really ideas outside the restoration of factory settings.
    Someone please help.
    Thank you

    Hello


    Have you tried another recovery option?
     

    I suggest you to press the F8 key as the computer starts up to the top and check the option in the advanced boot menu.
     

    Advanced, including safe mode startup options
     
     

    If you are able to open the advanced boot menu then you can execute the menu command prompt and type the command and check.
     

    Type CHKDSK c:/r or

    Type CHKDSK c:/f
     

    Important: even if running chkdsk on the drive if any bad sectors are found, chkdsk attempts to repair this sector and if all data on this sector it could get lost.
     

    If you are not able to perform the steps then you may need to get the Vista installation DVD. You can contact the manufacturer for more details.
  • Please recommend an SSD for Toshiba Satellite C660D-10W

    Hi people

    I'm looking for a recommendation for an SSD for my laptop, Satellite C660D-10W

    I want to perform a clean build - I have a new licensed copy of Windows 10 Pro.

    I bought a disc of Kingston after some research online, but subsequently discovered Kingston declaring that they do not support the use of this device in my laptop.

    Toshiba customer support put me on "Topaz", which recommended product + service (though not an SSD!) cost more than 250 pounds. For that price I can get a replacement of like-for-like of the laptop under warranty!

    I'm looking for a simple option where I can buy a SSD and do the installation myself. 250 GB to 500 GB for the region of £60ish.

    Thoughts?

    I have a Crucial SSD in my C660 - 1 7. He turned my laptop. Boots in seconds!

  • Drivers for Win XP Toshiba Satellite C660D - 13H

    Hello
    I have Satellite C660D - 13H and I just want to work with win XP but unfortunately I can't find the drivers for my model on the Toshiba site. It is possible for this model to work with XP? Because this processor is too weak to Win 7?
    Can someone help me?

    Thank you for the advice,
    S. Stoev

    Hello

    It seems that Win XP is not compatible with the Satellite C660D and that's why you can't find the drivers on Toshibas driver pages.
    But even if Win XP drivers are not available, you can install Win XP.
    But you need to find the XP drivers at your own hand.

    Here is a nice document how to determine the necessary drivers:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/Ann.jspa?annID=78

    You can also try some XP drivers out of other models of laptops as Satellite C650D

    But I recommend to use Win 7, since it is the best OS from Microsoft.
    The processor is not too low. Even my 6 years old notebook use Win 7. This OS, I installed and it works properly.

  • How to remove the partition of data (D) on the Toshiba Satellite

    Hi, I have a Toshiba C660, which is part of the series of satellites. I got my laptop yesterday and while I was looking at the capacity of the hard drive that I have seen that there are 2 partitions. A partition is my C drive and the other is my D drive, drive D is called 'data' and I double click on the folder, there is a folder named "HDD Recovery." Is it not possible to delete this partition, because I don't think that this partition is necessary and I'd like to expand my C drive using the D drive space.

    Thank you

    Partition D, your description, would appear to be a recovery partition. If so, it is provided so that the computer can be recovered/restored to the State it's in when the computer was delivered to you.

    If you have other means in place to make this (backups of the entire system to storsge external, for example), the partition could be deleted and the space used for other purposes. If you do not have such a plan for backup in place, you can delete it anyway - it's your computer. However, it would be unwise, in my opinion - but it's not my computer.

    Happy computing and good luck.

  • Sound on the Toshiba Satellite Pro U200 - 199 Ubuntu Feisty

    Hello

    Does someone have his work on Toshiba U200-199? I'm under Ubuntu Feisty (kernel 2.6.20 - 15-generic) and have tried both the supplied kernel modules and have compiled the latest Alsa (ALSA 1.0.14rc3). However, its still not working.

    I tried
    -all models that include the snd_hda_intel driver options in the alsa documentation
    -added option single_cmd to the driver snd_hda_intel
    -the core with pci = noacpi boot
    -dumping the dsdt ACPI, recompiling it without errors and loading from a virtual disk

    According to the model provided in option, I got of the different errors, for example:
    -hda_intel: azx_get_response timeout, set the mode single_cmd...
    -ACPI: Interruption PCI for 0000:00:1 b. 0 disabled device

    I am running the latest update of the BIOS (3.50). Needless to say that the sound works fine in Windows XP.
    I'm looking forward to suggestions on getting his work on this model.

    Best regards
    Patrik

    Hi, you have the same problem.

    Enable sound in Windows XP, and then pass the parameter ' Device Config. ' in the BIOS to "all devices". It works for me with Ubuntu 7.04 out of the box. If you disable the sound in windows a BIOS is set to 'Installation of OS', takes control over some windows device parameter.

  • Satellite C660D - BIOS flash failed

    I've updated the Toshiba Satellite C660D-16th (PSC20E) with BIOS version 1.60 and it updated without error. BIOS version file is DELHI10AB_10ABG_BIOS_160_WIN. When it restarts, it was empty and brick screen. I tried to find more old bios for this laptop and use wincrisis to retrieve the bios. It meets the outfit that keys FN + B while poweron without batrtery and USB drive LED flashes for a while but that is it :/

    Any ideas?

    The package of v1.60 - winner of the BIOS can be downloaded here:
    http://Support1.toshiba-tro.de/Tedd-...0601184846.zip

    Unzip the package.
    Then you will find the file: DELHI10AB_10ABG_BIOS_160_WIN.exe
    This exe file is also a zipped package.
    Right click on the exe file and select Extract here.
    In the DELHI10AB_10ABG_BIOS_160_WIN folder, you will find the bios.rom and ec.rom

    But I'm not sure if you Flash the BIOS once more to resolve your problem... maybe EPROM module is affected.

  • Toshiba Satellite M60-154: what is the best way for a long service life of a battery?

    Hello Toshiba-users,

    I bought the "Toshiba Satellite M60-154" but I want to use most of the time on the AC adapter.

    I read the manual, but they say nothing about the battery life for people like me who will use the computer power adapter laptop most of the time.

    I would like to know if:

    (1) it is best put the battery inside when I use the laptop on the power adapter for a long time (they say this is not good for the life of the battery when it is fully charged and when he is still in charge...)

    (2) it is best to take the battery when when I use the laptop on the power adapter for a long time and check the battery every week for example to see whether or not it is still loaded (they say it's good for the life of the battery when the battery is fresh off once a week)

    Indeed, what should I do to make sure that the battery will have a long life, knowing that I always use the laptop on the power adapter instead.

    Thanks for the tips

    [Edited by: admin on 28-Sep-05 17:28]

    Hello

    your info is just. Only put the battery in the laptop, if you want to load or work without mains, to make sure that your battery has a long service life relative.
