Toshiba NB100 ACPI & WIFI on Debian Squeeze

Hi, it is perhaps a good place to ask.

One morning, I founded my netbook completely hung. So I turned off and restarted, but it hung in new and latest lines on the screen where the ACPI: _OSI (Linux) ignored BIOS query. From now my linux can start very well just with the following kernel options: nolapic noapic, acpi = off, acpi = noirq and my atheros wireless card does not work. A strange thing is that this wireless card is now detected by lspci as AR5001, but before it was detected as AR242x. I tried the madwifi and ath5k drivers, but does not. On the touchpad, it is activated and I can activate and deactivate by pressing fn + f1

This is the result of lspci with the ath5k driver

02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5001 Wireless Network Adapter (rev ff) (prog-if ff)
!!! 7F of type unknown header

So I upgraded the BIOS to latest version 2.10, but it remains the same. Tried to boot with knoppix usb stick and it to 'start the nucleus' without freezing kernel options.

My system is Debian Squeeze.

So I don't know what's going on, can someone help me with this?

Thank you

Hello

It seems that it s not the right place to ask this question here. The point is that most Toshiba laptops come with Windows and not with a distribution of Linux. Also I m not a Linux user, but I have based this interesting article:

Good luck! :)

    This problem occurs when you use the menu of ubuntu GUI written by toshiba, I think, because if you use ALT - F1, everything goes fast.

    Hello!

    It is a known issue on Windows systems. If you n t use the WLAN and connect to the local network and you have active DHCP it will takes a lot of time on start up because the operating system tries to get an IP address from the DHCP server.

    Try to assign a static IP address, and the problem should be solved.

  • No sticker with the license number Windows XP for Toshiba NB100

    I lost the sticker with the license number Windows XP for Toshiba NB100. I have an invoice.
    How can I recover the license number?

    Licensed refused to support this topic.

    Hello

    You can't get the license number.
    First the sticker on the bottom of the unit has been a serial OEM key. This key cannot be used and would not work under Win XP installed system costs.

    The point is that Toshiba image which was preinstalled on this laptop has already been activated, which means that this key has been useless.

    I assume that you have not created a disk recovery Toshiba (or flash USB stick) in the past? Right?
    These records would be reinstall the image of Toshiba containing the active Win XP system.

    Well, usually it of possible to order this disc [here | http://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx] but I think that would be more because of the age of the laptop.

    Solution: you have to buy Win XP with valid serial key.

  • Not ReiserFS are supported on the Toshiba NB100

    Hello world

    I recently had a new Toshiba NB100 (netbook) with Ubuntu installed Remix (hardy, uname - r = 2.6.24 - 19-lpia).

    The problem I have is that it does not support reiserfs volume (disk usb in my case) and I couldn't find the way to solve. The only available with the string 'reiserfs' package is 'reiserfsprogs' (already installed).

    I realized that resierfs module has not yet built on architecture 'lpia '.

    Is this correct? Any solution?

    The hard drive in this model is the same size as SSD 2.5 drive "?

    Hello

    As far as I know the laptop supports the disk HARD 2.5 SATA.
    I think you could use a SATA SSD drive. Usually some SSDS require the firmware update but this should be provided by the manufacturers of SSD drives.

  • Debian Squeeze comments identification

    I imported a prompt of Debian Squeeze 32 bit ESXI 5.1.

    (For this time I have used Linux other comments 32-bit but want to use Debian 6 32-bit.)

    I've seen Debian 6 32-bit option on some screenshots of people who have set up Debian Squeeze as a guest OS, but this option is available in the vSphere Client drop down.

    This option could be hiding in the dialog box why or where?  I have Debian 5, 4 option available.

    Is it possible manually via the CLI?

    Check my answer to new topic where I stated that I had to upgrade the hardware of the VM before Deb 6 stood as an option.  Shut down the virtual computer, right-click on it, upgrade virtual hardware.

    Be sure to check that your guest operating system will support the new virtual hardware configuration.  Since you have a 3rd part of the VMware Tools installed, this seems to suggest that your guest is sort of a prepackaged VM also...

  • Impossible to activate WiFi on Toshiba NB100 - 11G

    Hello

    I try to activate wi - fi on nb100-11 g. I activate WiFi fn - F1, and the indicator down is light with an orange color.
    But it seems that wi - fi is not enabled, even if bluetooth is enabled.

    So I try to turn on wi - fi through Control Panel, but it shows no connection made.
    The only link that is there is the connection to the local network. Thus, wi - fi, is not activate.

    How can I activate it?

    Hello

    The FN + F1 key combination allows both the WiFi and Bluetooth.
    If BT has been activated then it would mean that you have chosen the BT instead of WLan connection and that's why the WiFi network is disabled.

    Press the FN + F1 again and check if you could choose Wlan and could allow it.

  • NB100-11R - WiFi modem disappeared

    Hello

    I am a complete novice when it comes to Linux/Ubuntu - so I hope someone can help me in relatively simple language here.

    I have a Ubuntu running of the NB100-11R.

    After a recent update ubuntu my wifi Modem has 'disappear' from the GUI.

    In short, since the GUI administration / network in the Connections tab Services I now only see the Options for "Setting up a connection" & "Connection point to point" where I already had a WIFI option.

    I guess it is something like a driver who need to reinstall, but I can't find the details very grateful if anyone has indications.

    Kind regards

    As you can see: here are not much expert Linux because most users (and me too) use the pre-installed Windows version because it s tested and well run.

    Maybe a Linux expert can give you a good answer, but I created something that might be interesting for you:

  • Starting with Ubuntu Remix on Toshiba NB100 problems

    Today, I tried to use the Update Manager to install several updates.

    During installation, the device froze.
    Now start only takes me to the start page of Ubuntu with the logo and a progress bar is empty.

    If I go to the Terminal, I have the following script

    Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
    (initramfs)

    I have no idea how to proceed. Is there a command that I can use for commissioning successfully or do I need to use the recovery CD?

    I'm a newbie to Linux.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I think that you should just grab the laptop because it's the easiest way to solve this problem starting Ubuntu.
    Other workarounds would be too difficult and would take as long as a simple recovery.

    Recovery if the NB100. The procedure should t take long.

    Check it out!

  • Re: Where is the CMOS battery in Toshiba NB100?

    Hi guys,.

    I disassembled my nb100 and have been to look at the motherboard for centuries, trying to find the CMOS battery.
    Basically, my netbook is not in the bios, it is just stuck on the Toshiba start screen.
    so I thought I would try to remove the cmos battery to see if that could fix the problem.

    So if someone could please tell me where I could the cmos battery?

    > Basically my netbook will not go into the bios, it remains just stuck on the home screen Toshiba.
    > so I thought I would try to remove the cmos battery too see if that would solve the problem.

    I doubt that this will help you solve this problem
    First and foremost the CMOS is soldered to the motherboard (in most cases).
    I think there must be a problem with a motherboard if the laptop is unable to pass the POST (power on self test).
    Basically, all that might be affected; RAM, etc.

    I think you should check the RAM first, if that is not enough, then an ASP should try to reflash the BIOS, otherwise the motherboard needs to be replaced.

  • Toshiba Excite Pro - WIFI dropouts very often

    Hello

    I recently acquired a toshiba excites pro 16 GB tablet.
    The problem is that I * disconnections wifi * very often, so that all my other devices still connected at the same time.

    When falls the wifi, it is very difficult to reconnect even if I restart several times the Tablet (perhaps after the fifth, but it remains not connected for a long time).

    If I stop the Tablet for a while then I connect immediately - until it disconnects.

    I already get into recovery and restored the tablet with no result.

    Any suggestions?

    Try this:

    Go to advanced wireless settings and check if + WMM + is activated.
    This option must be checked to have a stable connection between the Tablet and route

  • After update on Toshiba 32W3455D (B) - wifi fails to connect

    Hello

    I hope that someone can help you.

    Our Toshiba TV UK (B) 32W3455D updated itself this week.
    Since then, we have been unable to connect to the internet. Initially, he said missing a wifi dongle - I have no idea what it means.

    Then we tried a retune on TV channels and that the message went away but even if we can now see our wifi connection (which works fine for each item in the House) it takes the password, but then just do not connect.

    Is it possible to reset the TV, perhaps, to see if that helps?

    We have tried to disable the router box entirely and restart it already and have disconnected and reconnected in TV.

    Software update version is B3.54E and application version 3.30.

    Hope that I put this in the right forum and apologies if I did not. Any help most welcome.

    Thank you

    > Is there a way to reset the TV, maybe, see if that helps?
    It s is strongly recommended to reset the TV after each update of the firmware and I think that there must be an option to reset the settings of a TV.

    Have you checked the manual for the use of this information?
    Television was released 6 years ago (2008) and unfortunately, I couldn't find a manual appropriate for this TV camera on internet usage. :(
