Toshiba laptops work well with Linux?

I'm a big fan of Toshiba, but it's the last time I buy a Toshiba product. Producing none of Toshiba laptops running Linux? Least toshiba engineers could do is to make sure that a live ubuntu cd works on the laptop, to make sure that the fan starts and check maybe even the graphics driver works. If it's the fault of ubuntu then drop a bug in launchpad. As far as I know, none of the new Toshiba laptops have a fan that works properly, don't waste your money.

> All computers laptop Toshiba work well with Linux?

Officially, Linux is not supported on Toshiba laptops and it may happen that you will have a few small problems with Toshiba specific things like the multimedia keys.

    I use and Filezilla to connect to our FTP site.

    I see on line 42 of style.css

    I see on line 180

    do-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;

    and I see FontAwesome used in several places.

    I can only conclude that Courier New is the applied font.

  • Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects works well with the merger?

    Hey everybody,

    I'm in the middle of a semester at the University and I use Adobe Premiere Pro and Adobe After Effects (Windows version). I was wondering if the merger would work well with these programs? I intend to the latest update of merger next week.

    The mac I use is an iMac in August 2008 (running 10.5.6). 3.06 Ghz, 4 GB RAM, 1 TB HD, and a Nvidia GeForce 8800. I also install Windows XP Pro edition and the value of using two processors and 2-3 GB of RAM.

    I will also put it on a new account make sure that practically nothing is running while im current merger.

    I use this for my final college.

    Edit: I forgot to mention. I use CS3. My school has not yet updated in CS4.

    In addition, you think that a 64-bit version of Vista will work best and then 32 bit XP on this partition?

    I love Fusion as much as anyone here and use it a lot. But, in saying that...

    You use this something really important - your final college. You need to perform at its best performance with as few problems as possible because you don't have a lot of time in your semester left (in the grand scheme of things).

    My advice - do not experiment. Work around the merger (as heretical as it may seem on this forum) and first and AfterEffects in a punt in native mode Windows XP OS that is on a BootCamp partition. Video editing will focus on i/o and graphics of your system performance - and nothing works better for this than the native access to the system.

    Running two processors in a virtual merger with computer on a machine with 2 hearts can lead to better performance and is not recommended.

  • Captivate work well with Vista

    Does anyone know if Captivate 3 or 4 plays well with Vista yet?  I know, there are problems in the fall last 2 flows don't step back.  I'm about to get a laptop and put on that Captivate.  I wonder if I need to make sure that I get a XP opperating system or if the problems have been fixed.  Other users on the project are using XP I think.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I'm not sure about Captivate 3, but Captivate 4 should work fine under Vista. But we must be aware that vista is available in two flavors. 32-bit and 64-bit. Can be questions if you have the 64-bit variety. This variety is more and more dominant than the newer PCs are sold.

    See you soon... Rick

  • Toolbar missing Firefox 22 RoboForm. Worked well with Firefox 21

    Firefox updated to v.22 today and the Roboform toolbar is nowhere to be seen. It is in the complementary and activated, but not visible modules through toolbars or the icon to customize toolbars. Everything was fine with Firefox 21. There seems to be a compatibility problem between Roboform and 22 of Firefox. Version installed is Roboform v. 7.8.9.5. Please work with them and to publish an update. We're stuck without it!

    In the meantime, do you have suggestions on how to get this working? Reinstall RF made no difference.

    I just upgraded to Roboform 7.9.0.0 and toolbar works very well with FF22 and Win7.

  • I upgraded to firefox 3.6 recently 11, but firefox11 works well with my windows 7. It became slow and strucks on for 6 seconds for each click.

    11 Firefox hangs frequently for about 6 seconds for each click as switching between tabs, closing tabs, opening new tabs.
    by clicking a link etc,
    3.6.17 worked well, but 11 Firefox is too slow.
    problem is the same with version 4 and 4.01
    can someone please help me to solve my problem

    I'm sorry that you have problems with Firefox doesn't work is not as fast as it should. I'd like to help you here so that you manage Firefox running at great speed.

    Firefox, try to start Firefox in Safe Mode. It temporarily disables your extensions, customizations, etc. so that we can see if they slow down Firefox. If Firefox works fine in Safe Mode, then it is probably a problem with the add-on. Restart Firefox in normal mode, and then type "subject: addons" (without the quotes) in the address bar. Disable your extensions, restart Firefox between each one, until you find the troublemaker. Once you do, you can disable this add-on.

    I also see you have advise McAfee Site. I would recommend disabling that, as it is known to cause leaks of massive memory than Firefox slow down

    If Safe Mode does not work, you can also try updating your graphics card driver. Update your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL reading can show you how to do this.

  • Not found DVD Maker "DVD burner" message when DVD writer works well with other programs

    Hello

    I just created a DVD with AVS Video Converter and burned a DVD with no problems and created later a film with Windown Movie Maker, which worked well, it has exported to Windows DVD Maker, again not a problem, but when I click on burn, I get a not found message "DVD burner". How can I fix, I know the burner works very well because it works with other programs... And Windows DVD Maker was working fine until recently and outside a updated Windows Vista, I did not further updated or changes to the computer.

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi Froggie_UK,

    Since this problem you encounter began after that windows update, you can use the System Restore tool to return your computer to an earlier point in time. The tool using System Restore may not necessarily help you determine the problem. When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    Before you start Please back up your data

    To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:

    ·         Click Start, type System Restore in the search box, and then click System Restore in the list programs. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    ·         In the System Restore dialog box, click choose a different restore point, and then click on Next.

    ·         In the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.

    ·         Click Finish.

    ·         The computer restarts and system files and settings are back to the State they were in when the restore point was created.

    If it is an update, the best way to solve this problem is to apply only updates one at a time to determine which updates is causing this problem.

    Click on start-> all programs-> Windows Update, click on change settings in the left menu. Select download updates but let me choose whether to install them, click OK. When you are alerted to install a new update, in this window, click updates see, uncheck all updates and select one at a time, install it, restart your computer, test and update. Once you find the update either continue to ignore it, or look for it at http://support.microsoft.com/.

    We hope this resolves the issue and look forward to hearing back from you on your results.
