Satellite A660 - 16 M works with Linux?

I buy Toshiba A660 16 M, but I can't find information on the use of linux. Fact Toshiba A660 16 M works with Linux?
I use arch on it, but it's not important.

Sorry for my bad English, I'm from the Poland.

Hello

You can install any operating system.
The laptop would be functions using Linux, Win2k, Win XP Vista Windows 7 and other

But the question is; Would you be able to find drivers for Linux for A660 16 M.
"" RESPONSE; No, the Linux drivers are not on the pages of Toshiba, but given that most of the drivers are a part of the Linux distribution, no special drivers are required
However, if you need the drivers for example. LAN, Wlan, or graphics card then I would recommend research on support of the chip making pages.

Welcome them

  • Satellite A660 - 1 HL-problems with the graphics card

    Hello!

    This is my first thread so I apologize if I am doing something wrong and for my bad English. :)

    Just bought a Toshiba Satellite A660 - 1 hl with two adapters, integrated and a GeForce GT 330 M. The integrated works well, but when I go to the dedicated I encounter problems. The non-adjustable resolution in optimal mode and windows in the operating system (windows 7) delays when moving. I can't get info on the map in all kinds of temperature programs or dxdiag and such others.

    I tried to install the drivers from nvidia, Toshiba and windows update with no improvement. I can't run Windows expreince index because I get an error message or of any average games do I encounter error messages there as well. I begin to doubt that the drivers installed even.

    I hope you guys can help out me :)

    It comes to getting the error messages:

    You should test the RAM (memory) for problems using the Test of memory of Microsoft or the www.memtest.org (bootable CD).

    To confirm that this is a hardware problem, you must save your documents and run recovery.

    If the problem still occur on a new image, then the laptop should go to an ASP (Toshiba Service Center) for repairs (possibly a motherboard replacement).

  • Satellite L305-S5939 - Dual boot with Linux

    I recently bought the notebook title mentioned for my studies in computer programming that will require me to dual boot with Linux.
    I decided to use Ubuntu and their instructions for upward the dual boot parameters are simple.

    However, I heard from people having problems with the settings of the BIOS on other brands when said is finished.
    Before I embark on this journey, I want to just make sure that everything is set to avoid problems.

    Unfortunately, I have not found much information about Dual boot with Linux and Toshiba L305s.
    Other than the basic principles of what I need to do before installing?

    I think that a dual boot on the Satellite L305 should not be a problem because you can do it on every laptop or PC.

    If you want Ubuntu you should take a look on Wubi
    http://wubi-Installer.org/
    It of pretty easy to use and in my opinion the best way to install Ubuntu on a system dual boot.

  • Satellite U400D does not work with dockstations!

    Hello

    I'm now looking for laptops for the home, and I want a template with docking station, because it will be my only PC. And I want to have comfortable workplace (screen + keyboard + mouse) + some periphery.
    I don't want to mess with wiring whenever I take for laptop in another room or outdoors, but still I need portability, and I don't want all my data with me and do not compromise in computing power. I'm looking for models 13 inches, because they have dimensions of the standard paper and adapt easily to any bag.

    This is a PROBLEM! Toshiba has big 13-inch models U400d, which perfectly suited to my needs, but without no docking station.

    I discovered very few cell phones may work with dock stations and are for the most part, these laptops 15 "and above corporate models (parts of USB, as Dynadock don't count - he has weak graphics and can not run edge all together, although we'll see what happens with USB 3.0).

    Dear Toshiba, give full support dock stations (for example taking the PCI bus) your lines of book HOUSE, as the series of satellites?

    PS why I want to continue with THAT and only for laptop:
    -I don't want to lose time sync my data back. Hard drives are so huge and have so much data on them, it's a real problem. Therefore, the PC more you - is the biggest problem.

    PPS maybe dynadock with USB 3.0 could be a solution - if it would offer a choice of options of graphics chip. My Dynadock, which I bought with U400, couldn't read clips from Youtube and provide errors accepting the ADSL router Ethernet stream. I had to return the two products to the seller.

    PPS another problem is that no one book has IPS display (with 10-bit color). While SLR cameras have 14-bit color ;-(

    Thank you very much.

    I'm guessing that adding a docking connector would add too much fees for Satellite models, more than 99% of users will probably not use a Docker anyway.

    But there are some models that have a docking connector, Satellite Pro S300 (at least on the models I looked in google).

  • Satellite U840W - how it works with SSD and HDD drives?

    American,

    I have a U840W which is a beautiful piece of work. He currently heads the Win7.
    It has a hybrid drive system, SSD 32 G and 500G HARD drive. Apparently the 32G acts as a cache.

    I tried to install Linux Mint as a dual boot with Win7.

    Cannot make it work. The installation process (Ubiquity) does not see disks or partitions.
    In a file manager or the GPart-partition manager, I see the HARD drive and all partitions.

    Help me to help the developers of the ubiquity of the problem of access to disks I can get a
    explanation of the way in which the disk system is organized and how it works?

    Any help greatly appreciated, Ian.

    The LINUX community already knows your answer and has led the path to resolve, such as the forum of mint as this thread:

    http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=124299

    Even Microsoft Windows has trouble with setup.exe on disc SSD/HDD hybrid and the Microsoft forums are polluted with their own unverified solutions, some of which are frighteningly superstitious that authoritative to be listed here.

    Ubi, Gnome and KDE are all based on the ability of Grub reliable start the player and so many different distributions don't guarantee reliability.

    I don't have the problem you describe with hybrid hard drives since the installation of 11 Unbuntu.

    Mint is not my first choice with the exception of a bureau of temporary replacement, since the authors are strongly focused on the Office UI, less than the largest army of coders behind Unbuntu and Fedora.

    I'm not criticizing the currency of your choice, but comparing the current Unbuntu boot process could shorten your objective dissection of a startup process of OEM from a manufacturer known for securing lower level specifications.

  • Satellite L30-149, only works with external monitor and VGA mode

    Satellite L30-149, Windows XP Home Edition

    Yesterday I did face the following problem:

    I swithched on my laptop but I have nothing on the screen. I tried to reboot several times, but it did not help. If I look very carefully, I see the logo of Intel (black text on white on the screen) but nothing else. The logo shows very low.

    I plugged on the external monitor. With that he gives a little more. The Intel logo with the instruction how to reach configuration etc. Then Windows logo but when it should ask the user, the external monitor going to sleep mode and nothing happens after that.

    And an external monitor, I managed to connect to Windows in safe mode and also in VGA mode. In VGA mode, I tried to change the resolution, after that I got black screen again and I had to start.

    Now I wonder if I could do something (update of drivers, etc.) or should I go to the store where I bought the laptop and ask them to fix it. This look like a problem covered by the warranty?

    --
    Upgrade to this message (what happened after that I wrote the above text).

    I turned on the laptop again. I thing the lightning from the room is now better because I noticed that the laptop seems to work (almost) correctly. Windows starts normally, I can faintly see the desktop. This seems to be a problem in the background ligthning. FnF7 does not change the situation.

    This sentence is very interesting.
    Sounds like a question of FL-ups!

    It is a small part behind the screen and control the backlight of the screens.
    Usually, this part is not very expensive and the replacement is not complicated to a technician for laptop.

    If your warranty is valid, then everything should be done for free.
    Try to contact the ASP in your country and ask for later handling.

  • L10-202: ACPI Module does not work with Linux SUSE 10

    I bought a Toshiba laptop L10-202 a few weeks ago and tried to install SUSE 10 on it. The installation went well but I have some problems with ACPI modules.
    I know that Toshiba recommends Windows XP but I have nowhere to ask for help because I could not find help on Linux forums. I should mention that I've recompiled the kernel because I considered that this was not necessarily.
    So far, the modules ACPI informs me on the temperature of the processor (57 degrees Celsius, the fan starts and at 52 degrees Celsius, it stops) and the only function that works is suspension on HARD drive. The battery level is not indicated because there is no file in/proc/acpi/battery/to read information on the battery. Except another ACPI hardware was detected by SUSE installation and works very well. I couldn't use the Toshiba_acpi module because this laptop has a Phoenix BIOS, but this isn't a big problem.

    You have an idea why ACPI does not work on SUSE and how could I solve the problem?

    Don't you think that there is no danger for the laptop to continue using SUSE, which limited the work of ACPI modules could cause damage to my laptop or it is safe to use SUSE?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Well well, in my own opinion it s desirable that all functions of the laptop should work properly. But I put t think he might of s for laptop computer continue to use the Suse10.
    I would recommend using the other Linux distribution. That use you the Knoppix. This Linux you can stat from a CD or DVD and it works like a normal Linux operating system and you can also use the Windows XP.

    Little info on ACPI:
    With ACPI, the operating system can turn off devices, such as CD-ROM drives, when they are not in use. Another example: ACPI will enable manufacturers to produce computers that automatically turns on as soon as you touch the keyboard

  • Satellite U400-138: RAM works with 667 Mhz instead of 800 MHz

    Hello

    I have Satellite U400-138 with 3 GB of RAM (2 + 1 GB sodimm modules)
    I have new kit 2x2gb sodimm-s Corsair PC6400(800MHz)

    When I install new modules, system reported that they are working on 667 Mhz instead of 800 MHz,
    Maybe that's the problem BIOS chipset because that support this frequency.

    Help me, what to do, to run new modules on 800 MHz?

    Hey Buddy

    I doubt that it is a BIOS problem.
    The point is that the speed of the RAM can be lowered and locked by the FSB (front side bus)
    If the FSB supports only 667 Mhz then your RAM 800 Mhz will run only at 667 Mhz
