Tecra S10 - 123 and Linux Mandriva boot problem

I have a Tecra S10 - 123 for two months and wanted to install Mandriva on it (I have no experience with Linux...). I burn the Image on Cd image .iso file and changed the bios settings to boot from the CD-ROM. It works without problem, but Mandriva stops to boot from the Live Cd once the kernel is loaded.

What can I do?

Maybe it's a SATA question, have you tried to set the SATA Mode in the BIOS to "COMPATIBILITY"?

Work the other flavors of Linux? Maybe Ubuntu will install properly.

    Hi Damir

    As I see that you do have a general problem with e-SATA, but just when you want to use this device to some so I think that the solution is not so easy.

  • Tecra S10 - CAD and 3D software compatibility

    Hello
    It seems that the graphics card in my Tecra S10 - A11 has problems with software like Autocad 2009 or Rhino 4. The card is a nVidia quatro NVS 150 M. Cursors in these programs are slow or flashing. Y at - it a solutiun known to this problem, because I found a lot of similar problems on various forums, but I didn't find any solution.

    I never thought that a cell phone in this category would have had such problems. But if the GPU is really incapable of managing these programs at a level that I feel really disappointed.

    Hello

    In your case, I would check if the graphics card driver can be improved and what Autocad 2009 support is recommended.

    Possibly Autocad 2009 needs some version of driver?
    Has been installed the latest BIOS? Check it!

  • Drive DVD SD-R6472 and SP 6000 boot problem

    I've recently updated to an engraver of DVD SD-R6472, however I find that I can't have my SP to boot with the DVD player committed. If I pop him to hunt and start the machine, then pop in diving bed and written discs without problem. Have any suggests as to how I can get my laptop to boot with the disc so that I can boot from a CD?

    I am running Windows 2000 and have applied the latest version of the BIOS.

    Hello

    It's a very bad situation. In my opinion, this disc is not compatible with your device and it is not recognized by the BIOS at the beginning upward. Problem is that every car is unable to be used with all units. You're lucky that you can use with the operating system

    The only thing you can try is to find a more recent firmware, but if you use it, you will lose your warranty drive if the drive is a new. Sorry, but in my opinion there nothing to do.

  • Dual boot with Windows 7 and LINUX - Tecra A11 (PTSE1A - 005-00L)

    Hello

    I bought a new Tecra A11 computer laptop running WIN7 Pro. I want to install LINUX also. This means that I want to run my laptop in dual boot Win7 Pro/LINUX (a Distributor). Please tell me how to do this.

    There are 5 partitions on the HARD disk:
    1 active, recovery partiton 1.46 GB (without drive letter)
    2. principal asset C: start 145,04 GB (NTFS)
    3. active logics E: 78,13 GB (NTFS)
    4 active logical F: 64.25 GB (NTFS)
    5 primary Partition 9.2 GB (no drive letter, the unknown application)

    Hey, I need because I was admitted to a course of RHCE (Red Hat Certified Engineer)

    Please help me

    Hello

    I can't give you a step by step explanation, but most distributions offer today a possibility to coexist with Windows.
    When installing the unused free space will be taken by Linux (with the consent of the user of course!)

    What exact configuration you need is impossible for someone else to say, but I would say to make the space occupied by the F player available for Linux.
    You seem to have of enough space for Windows and Linux operating system doesn't have much.

    Some thoughts about setting up your score:

    I touch NOT 1,2 and 5 no matter what. They are your system and a system of internal partitions (recovery and data environment) and wouldn't it be fun to lose.

    1 active, recovery partiton 1.46 GB (without drive letter)
    2. principal asset C: start 145,04 GB (NTFS)
    3. active logics E: 78,13 GB (NTFS)
    4 active logical F: 64.25 GB (NTFS)
    5 primary Partition 9.2 GB (no drive letter, the unknown application)

    Then choose a Distro (Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora and OpenSuse - suggestion Fedora will be as close as possible associated with RedHat) that will guide you in the steps to allocate space for Linux.
    I suggest however to remove the disk F in Windows for Linux does not start from resizing all partitions.
    I do not know which works perfectly, but will just take time, and will most probably remain pretty useless drive F.

    If you have valuable data on your device, make sure to save! No software comes with warranty :)
    Last but not least - make 100% sure to create a collection set using the Toshiba Recovery Media Creator before you start the installation of Linux.
    If something goes wrong you have the opportunity to put the unit in factory condition.

    Good luck and keep asking you if you need extra help!

  • Dual Boot Linux and Windows with HDDRecovery problem

    Hello

    I use the dual operating system Windows Vista and Linux open SUSE distribution on Toshiba Satellite A350-10z, everything works great except Windows Recovery. I have Linux (start: dev / sda6) and Windows Vista (starting: dev / sda2). Windows has 2 partitions, C and D drive, D drive I have folder HDDRecovery. After F8 I using the option of repair and waiting, then massage is displayed "the installed program cannot start. Click OK to turn off the computer.

    Before I installed Linux recovery worked well. Is there a chance to use the HDDRecovery of Windows Disk D or I have to boot from the recovery DVD?

    In my opinion, Linux messed with partitions or the MBR and maybe that is the reason why HARD drive recovery does not seems the DVD recover is your order of ion option to restore the laptop to factory settings.
    By the way: I didn't install Linux on my laptop, but I use Linux using the Knoppix Live CD

  • Dual-boot Windows and Linux, but Linux has calendar, TB 31.0

    I'm using Linux Mint and Windows 7 dual-boot. I have TB 31.0 installed on each operating system. TB Linux has a capacity of calendar; in Windows, there is nothing (by nothing, I mean no calendars - I can't see their properties, for example, access somehow).

    I should add that Windows and Linux TB programs share the same profile folder (located on a separate partition), therefore, all of the same modules, passwords, etc.

    The error console records the following:

    Timestamp: 14/08/2014-18:41:33
    Error: Components.classes['@ [cid] is undefined

    Online: 17

    There are a variety of flow on the errors related to this.

    My apologies for posting this in this way; I intend to submit this via the crashreporter, but I can't get the program crash with this error earlier.

    An answer to my own question: it turns out that, while sharing a profile works quite well for most of the cases, with lightning, he does not, like the extension has different versions of Linux and Windows. The problem is solved very simply: by not using is not the same profile for each version.

    Glad to see that no one takes on this one (except me, of course).

    I can unplug the AC and the laptop works fine until there is enough battery power. Battery plug is almost the same as the original (5100mAh - 1BRS PA3588U 10.8V) - 10.8V 5200mAh replacement battery Toshiba PA3588U-1BRS PA3356U, etc..

    Can you help me understand why he has just this problem starting and the rest works well?
    You have a solution?

    Thank you

    Maybe you should use a Toshiba original battery.
    Get in touch with Toshiba ASP in your country that could send you an original and right part that is compatible with the laptop.

  • Re: Tecra S10 and S11 freeze randomly

    We have several Tecra S10 and S11. Freezing randomly during the day. Some even twice within half an hour, others spread it throughout the day.

    The Tecra is all Windows 7. Some have 64 bit, others a 32-bit installation. After installation of Windows 7, we have removed additional software we don't need, like McAfee, Toshiba goodies (Assist, Tempro, etc.), Ebay, etc. After that we activatie Office 2007 and Microsoft put updated laptops. So far so good.

    However, after a week or two just work in Word causes the Tecra to freeze. Same ctrl + alt + delete does not work. The Tecra should be forced to turn off the power, press and hold the power button.

    Everyone recognizes these "frozen moments". It's very annoying.

    It is not easy to say why this is happening.
    Always it is that Office is preinstalled on almost all laptops Toshiba so I did not thing your laptops can be somewhat different.

    Maybe something else responsible for this?
    Maybe are all connected to your business LAN and there is a problem.
    Are connected external devices which can be responsible for this?
    Maybe some internal software of the company is blocking something.

    It is not easy to say what he can be.

    Have you done tests in the past to see what can be the problem?

  • Tecra S10-11 a - frequent faults and long service life

    Toshiba Tecra S10-11 has, PTSB3E-01900GG3
    Purchase date: 14.08.2010.
    Expiration date of the warranty: 12.08.2013

    For 16 months, the computer has more than two months of service!
    It is currently in service (exactly 505 days, 65 days in service. (Terrible!)

    First rehabilitation 17/02/2011 the problem with the sound. Repairs took about 40 days (I don't have a computer for work replacement)
    Second recovery 25/12/2011 the problem with button walk / stop. The computer is still in service (I don't have a replacement of the computer for work)!

    The frequent failures with a very long period of repairs influence a lot on my work. In addition, I have to present and take the computer in Belgrade which is located about 220 km from the city where I work.

    Please consider, Toshiba as a company with a good reputation, the complete replacement of my computer because I am a user in a company and I got high cost caused by failures.

    Unusual sound that you indeed have to wait as long.
    But I think that this does not apply to all Toshiba FSA.

    I hope that someone will get in touch with you in order to solve this annoying problem.

  • Reboot and select good Boot Device problem - my PC does not start!

    Hi all

    Memory - past

    I don't think that the issue is a faulty connection. My reason to believe so because I think that I had a virus on my computer (I was not able to confirm) I tried to delete the last time I was able to use the computer. Then I turned off the computer to restart, but unfortunately, that's when I got this error message.

    I had this problem once before (about 3 years ago) and I was not able to solve this problem, so I just stopped using the PC. Then one day my Dad turned on the computer (a few months later) and it worked all of a sudden.

    Anyone know what this problem is? How can I solve this problem?

    Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you very much for your time and effort!

    Additional information:

    It was originally a windows 7 PC, but I have upgraded to windows 10, which is the current operating system.

    Product: HP p6620f

    I managed to start my PC again.

    I have unplugged all connections and left it that way for about 24 hours. Then I plugged everything back in and all of a sudden the PC worked again. I don't know if it will last, but right now it works.

    I'll write another post if something changes.
