Ubuntu on Satellite L655-1 KQ

Hello!

I have a Toshiba Satellite L655 1KQ and I don't know if any type of linux or ubuntu works on it and I don't know where can I find the drivers for ubuntu for this laptop.

Can someone help me?

Of way General Toshiba doesn't support Linux so you yourself with this.
I recommend you ask for help on some Linux forum directly. Here, you have more chance of finding little help and good advice.

    the link posted by Ilay works. Check again.
    It describes how to perform a HARD drive recovery. I guess this is necessary since the system cannot be repaired using the automatic repair procedure

  • Satellite L655 - cannot download drivers

    I am trying to reinstall a Satellite L655 and getting snookered in all directions.

    1. I created recovery disks for installation on the old, due to lack of hard drive. When I install them (after watching paint dry for about an hour), it restarts and then fails on the first round - "installation of windows could not configure windows to run on a hardware on this computer." Suggestions Forum about this error did not help.

    2. the support of partners in South Africa have no copies of the factory recovery disks. They tell me they upload ad hoc drivers from the support site.

    3. I tried to clone the old disk (Windows runs on it, after all) but CloneZilla barfed on bad sectors.

    4. I installed Windows from a Microsoft OEM installation disk image. It runs, but obviously requires some hardware drivers. So I downloaded most of the people I need, like the map LAN, Intel Chipset and soundcard. But the WIFI drivers and screen just download: these are the largest files (60MO & 123 MB respectively) and downloads fail before the end. WELL before the end. I tried several times, using a significant amount of my allocation of bandwidth for the month (we have capped access here in black Africa!)

    I tried the download from another site, I have remote access, perhaps thinking that there is something wrong with my broadband - and got exactly the same problem. The remote site has the speed of the Internet about 6 MB/s - surely enough for a 120 MB file transfer? Apparently not.

    I tried these downloads from before the time of breakfast, through the afternoon and night, and it's now after midnight, all with the same results (I'm on a time zone that is in the middle of the Euro zones).

    From Toshiba Web site does not support download resuming, and there is no mirror sites. What happens in the blue flames is a person supposed to do?

    * UPDATE *.
    Download of driver WLAN 60MO on remote site succeeded on the second try. 120Mo adapter driver has not yet earlier on the second attempt to display. I don't see much point in trying once again, have you?

    * UPDATED MORE *.

    'Config' free download that I thought was the WLAN driver, turned out be just the crapware "config utility" and does not include the pilot. (Apparently), there is no driver for the wireless card. So I am always without WiFi and the screen is stretched wide.

    Oh and I tried to look elsewhere compatible drivers - the hardware ID displayed in the Device Manager tell me that the wireless card is a _Broadcom Dell 1501/1503/1701 a half Mini Card_ and graphic adapter is an ATI Mobility Radeon HD5650M_ _AMD. So I googled those chains, found things almost identical or very similar (on the Dell site!) that I downloaded - don't. Not good, "hardware not present on your computer.

    Anyone know where I'm going now?

  • Satellite L655 - 14 d - how to restore factory settings?

    Hello, I'm Ali.

    I have the Toshiba Satellite L655 - 14 d. I have format my laptop and repartition the HARD disk and reinstall Windows 7 from disc and I already save folder HDDrecovery...
    Now, how can I restore my laptop to factory settings?

    I hope to hear the solutions...
    Thank you
    ALI ADEL

    Hi Ali,

    To clarify some things: you reinstall Windows 7 recovery disk Toshiba or Microsoft Windows disk?
    If you have used the Toshiba Recovery disk, follow the instructions posted by Akuma. You can use the HDDrecovery feature to restore your laptop to factory settings.

    If you have used the Microsoft disk you need recovery disk from Toshiba. HDDrecovery is a Toshiba feature and cannot be used with the operating system preinstalled. That is why it s not enough that you have already saved the folder HDDrecovery, it will not work!

    If you don t have a recovery disc, you can order it here:

But when I used it, a mistake was "copy of splitpart or the Canadian Red Cross has failed!" After that, I can't boot my laptop more. There is a message "BOOTMNGR missing." I think I already deleted the operating system in the player. Please help me. How can I fix?

    Hello

    If you can, please try to boot again from the USB and run the recovery.

    Whatever the problem, if the recovery is unsuccessful, I recommend the following steps:

    -buy a set of recovery-store to the wire to https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu
    -If you did, and even this game fails to install, take care to check your HARD disk for problems.

  • Satellite L655 - plugged, but not charging

    Hello

    I have an a computer Satellite L655 laptop and it worked very well to the top until there's a week, where all of a sudden it shows the message: 'PLUGGED in NO CHARGE.

    After a bit of troubleshooting, I tried many things including the battery removal and runs directly to the a/c power. Everything seemed normal from a mechanical point of view.

    However, after having also updated the driver software of all 3 components of the battery (found by Device Manager), the only thing that works every time, but is quickly reversed, is actually uninstall 'compatible Microsoft ACPI control method battery'.

    First of all, I don't know what this is... but I can't have to do each day in order to get my laptop to load. I can't always have a power when I need to use my laptop... can someone please help me know what on Earth has happened to my laptop and what I can do to fix it permanently?

    Thank you very much

    Anelia

    Hmm, you could try to remove this compatible Microsoft ACPI control method battery and could change the automatic installation of the driver for the device.
    1. Click Start, right-click computer and then click Properties.
    2. in the list of tasks, click Advanced system settings.
    3. in the System Properties dialog box, click the Hardware tab, and then click Windows Update driver settings.
    4. Select never check for drivers automatically when I connect a device.
    5. click OK twice, and then close the system dialog box.

    Now the driver for control method battery Microsoft ACPI-complaint should not automatically install.

    But I guess this isn't a better solution for you, but probably only system restore would help solve this problem.

    Otherwise, it could be a battery problem and this means that the battery must be replaced.

  • Can satellite L655-14F - I change the display driver?

    all I want to know if I can 'Upgrade graphics card in my laptop.

    Satellite L655-14F...... Hotel details

    "Graphics card".

    type: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650 related HyperMemory technology
    amount of memory: 1 024 MB dedicated VRAM (total available graphics memory using HyperMemory technology can be up to 2 267 MB with 3 GB and 32-bit operating system and 8 GB memory 4 083 MB with a 64 - bit OS system memory or system)
    "type of memory: DDR3 video RAM (resp. RAM video and system memory combined)"

    We are talking on cell phones and the No. Laptops have a very specific design and hardware upgrade is limited. Generally updated graphics card is not supported by Toshiba, so there is no sense of thinking about it.

    Cooling system's biggest problem with laptops. Each laptop has the system of cooling optimized for certain physical infrastructure. Build in the cooling system should cool the hardware components and protect them from overheating and damage.

    I will now use the same word as badhat: theoretically if you upgrade graphics card, you will have more powerful piece of hardware that produces more heat than the original. More heat means more likely to damage the material.

    You can upgrade level RAM or HARD drive, but everything else is meaningless. That s in my opinion.

    Why don't l t buy you more powerful laptop? Something like Satellite A660, P750 or Qosmio?

    > Recently I'm having all sorts of problems with internet explore, gel, also by e-mail, and more now when you turn on the laptop, it takes forever to load up and sits on a black screen for a good few minutes.

    Have you tested the laptop with fees preinsalled OS?
    It is possible that your system is confused until on the other hand, it might be possible for a kind of hardware malfunction cause this problem I m thinking about HARD drive problem

    You can test the HARD drive for errors using tools such as drive most beautiful test for example, but I recommend you to test the laptop with the new OS if its hardware or software issues installed to determine.

  • Compatible HARD drive need for my Satellite L655 - 1 6

    Hey everybody,

    my 4 year old Satellite L655 1 g 6 has recently had some problems and the hard drive needs to be replaced.
    Does anyone know about a cheap substitute that should not necessarily be the Toshiba?

    I don't want to do a SSD hard drive, as this laptop is old enough, and the cost for the ssd would not depreciate in the next years.
    Would be very grateful to hear some opinions/suggestions :)

    -Thanks in advance

    In general you need is of 2.5 HARD drive with connector SATA and these drives, you can find in every store of the computer. Pick up some info on the proposed models, capacities and prices so that you can make a decision that you want to buy.
    > I don't want to do a SSD hard drive, as this laptop is old enough, and the cost for the ssd would not depreciate in the next years.
    In my opinion it's the wrong opinion. Using SSD increase you the performance of laptop computer s quickly and were very quick machine. One day if you do not want to use this laptop, you can remove the SSD and put old HDD inside. SSD can be used on the new machine.
    For me, it's the best solution for you.

    Last year I've improved my 4 years old P500 with SSD and I m very happy with it. The price was only 149 Euros. It's OK price. Change the HARD drive is not complicated and you can do it alone.

  • Webcam on Satellite L655 shows a very blurry picture

    Hi guys

    I bought Toshiba Satellite L655-158 last Sunday. Just checked the webcam. Used via Skype and everyone complains about the quality of the image. I tried to use an another older Dell laptop on the same internet connection (because I know that could have been because of the internet connection speed), but the picture quality on this one was very good.

    I'm tempted to return the laptop but I thought I'll check if there is a solution available on this forum.

  • Satellite L655-12 q - CD/DVD-rom can't burn CDs

    Hello

    I use a Satellite L655-12 q, model number short PSK1EE.
    It has a tsstcorp CD/DVGW, type ts-L633c. My rom reads and burns DVDs fine, but can not read or burn CDs, especially when the size of the files involved is small.

    Can someone please help?
    Thnx.

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what is wrong, but if there is problem with playback too, it may be a malfunction of the equipment. Perhaps more calibration doesn t the goal and objective cannot be placed in the right position to read/write CD.
