Satellite C650-14W - Linux does work on it?

Hey

I tried to install ubuntu on my Toshiba Satellite C650-14W. I chose ubuntu - 10.04 - desktop-amd64. I have a processor intel, but didn t find a file name with intel.

I started on a CD and started the installation but it stopped after a while with an error message like "ChildBuild" - something.

Thank you!

This laptop has the Intel i3 processor? In this case, it's a 64-bit processor, and you can install the "amd64" of Ubuntu Linux edition.
Initially, AMD has managed to produce the first x 86 64-bit compatible CPU (before Intel!), so the "amd64" stuck under the ISO name.

For custom installation help, you can also look at ubuntuforums.org.

Toshiba does not officially support Linux and does not seem to recognize Linux for laptops.

    > A bit difficult to find identical. (second hand). You know where to find such?
    2nd hand parts, especially good work motherboards are very rare.
    In most cases, these parts not found on some platforms of internet auction where sold people own portable computers.

    New parts are easy to find, but of course, this part would not come cheap. Motherboard went the more expensive laptop and a replacement will be a costly procedure.
    However, these pieces could be ordered in the Toshiba authorized service provider that is available in your country or you could also get such 3rd party dealers and suppliers.

  • Satellite C650-16U speakers does not work after battery ran down

    Hello

    My wife and I was watching a DVD on the computer and did not know that decision was not lit, and therefore the computer off. When we restarted it after that food was missing the sound no longer works, and I have been unable to restart. I have restarted the computer, checked all very silent buttons etc, and I have uninstalled/reinstalled the driver. When I tried using the helmet on the laptop, the sound is fine, but it does not work in normal contexts, when nothing is plugged.

    I hope someone can help!

    Thank you

    Hello

    In addition to checking the reading in Control Panel-> sound tab, you must remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter when the laptop is OFF.
    Hold down the power button / 30 sec long and then put the two parties.

    You can try to refresh the USB ports and the controllers that appear in Device Manager.
    Disconnect all USB devices and go to Device Manager.
    Here, expand USB area controllers.
    Now delete all USB host controllers and hubs root USB in the list.
    After this reboot of the laptop.
    Finally, the Windows operating system should start and should recognise all USB devices once again. Now connect a USB mouse and check if you can use it.

    You are right, that the BT is integrated with the smart WiFi ATHEROS WB195-HMC
    I have not much experience of Linux but BT and WiFi must be activated by FN + F8 (using Windows)
    Eventually, you need to enable this as well on Linux

  • My Satellite C650-110 will not work

    Hello

    My laptop will not work. It is still covered by warranty Toshibas. The problem is the charger does not work or there is a problem with the connection inside the laptop. When you try and turn on the laptop a yellow light flashes but does not illuminate.

    I really don't want to pay for another charger that toshiba may replace it and it is that I could do without spending money.

    Has anyone else had the same problem.

    Thank you

    Claire

    > It is still covered by warranty Toshibas.
    Contact the nearest Toshiba service provider. Let them test your laptop and exchanging material which must be responsible for this.

  • Satellite C650 noise has stopped working

    I had my laptop for about 6 months and have had no problems with the sound so far.

    I recently did a windows update and a few hours after my sound has stopped working completely.
    I updated the driver (Conexant chip Cx20671 hd audio) after having failed, I uninstalled and reinstalled the driver off toshiba downloads, after restarting again no sound.

    When I have media player, the sound engineer acknowledges there is something to play, but there is no sound coming out of speakers

    _ * Please can someone help! *_

    Hi mate

    > When I have media player, the sound engineer acknowledges there is something to play, but there is no sound coming out of speakers

    Just a question: have you checked if the sound is not muted?
    Please press FN + ESC to activate or deactivate mute.

  • Satellite C650 - sound suddenly stopped working

    Hello.

    I bought this laptop the month last November.
    in any case, around a week or two ago, the noise suddenly would not work.

    He started making strange noises when I put in the headphones and speakers just made no noise at all never.
    I did a lot of weird things - like system restore, reinstall audio drivers but nothing worked until I updated the bios, then everything went well and the sound worked again.

    However, today, the sound suddenly stopped working again. I tried to re - install the current bios but InsydeFlash says: "the version of the ROM file is the same BIOS version" and just closes.

    I searched the internet for an older version of the bios, but when I try to install it, InsydeFlash said: 'the version of the ROM file is not newer than the version of the BIOS' and of course, I know that but then it closes too!

    I'm not really good at computers or anything, any help at all would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I recommend checking some options first;
    -check if mute is not activated
    -check if all the volume controls are set to a higher value
    -check if the sound using headphones

    If this is not successful, you must reinstall the audio driver.
    First go to Device Manager and uninstall the audio driver. Restart the device
    Download the audio driver from the Toshiba page, then reinstall it. Reboot once again and test the sound.

  • Satellite C650 - keyboard problem

    My satellite C650 laptop keyboard does not work properly.
    He was always a bit slow, but now it's very slow and keys work intermittently.
    Several keys do not work.

    As far as I know that nothing happened, as water damage.
    Any ideas... (my question mark does not at all)!

    If I m remembering that some people have posted on similar problems. The BIOS update should fix this.

    Latest version of the BIOS is installed on your laptop via Satellite?

  • Satellite C650 - error reading disk and the recovery disk does not work

    Hello

    I have a toshiba Satellite C650, who has recently developed with a disc read error. I want to access the command prompt to try some possible solutions I've read on the internet.

    I made a Windows 7 recovery disk using my other acer laptop which has also installed Windows 7 64-bit. When I use the recovery disk and it loaded the files etc it evokes just a black screen and the cursor.

    Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening?
    I tried to start my computer acer laptop from the recovery disk and it worked fine.

    As is - this does anyone have suggestions as to why I get the message "disk read error - press ctrl, alt and delete to restart?

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to offer the exact diagnosis, but of course, there must be a problem with the HARD drive. Can you get a second one for test purposes and exchange it. Just to be sure if the HDD is troublemaker.

    But there is something else:

  • Satellite C650-17Z - keys FN and Ctrl-Alt-Del does not work

    I recently bought a Satellite C650-17Z and the function key and the Ctrl-Alt-Del key combination ceased to operate. Is there a solution to this all - I got older laptops from Toshiba is a driver issue, but I can't find the drivers for specific keyboard on the Toshiba site.

    Could someone enlighten me, please?

    Hello

    Regards the FN keys will find it many other topics in the forum.
    Did you find them? Is there a solution for you?

    In any case, you must reinstall the package of added value and utility to Support Flash Cards because both controls the FN keys. You can download all the tools on the official website of Toshiba:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    But for the Al-Ctrl-Del combination, there is no special driver but maybe it can be solved with these tools...
