Satellite A100-1k7:Need Atheros 5007eg driver for Ubuntu 7.10 Linux

Hi
I'm the proud owner of an A100-1k7 laptop upgraded to a total of 2Gb Ram.
I tried to install my new discovery, Ubuntu 7.10 onto it. I succeeded of course:)
However I do have on issue which I can't figure out myself.
My wifi adapter is not running. It's one of those atheros 5007eg's.
I tried to find a driver but couldn't find one.
Madwifi doesn't support it yet and ndiswrapper, well that's a bit out of my league I suppose.
I tried different tutorials but all of them didn't work for me.
I got this far:
When i give ndiswrapper the driver install command (i'm using a winxp 32bit driver) it shouts driver already installed.
But when i try to see if it works i get the message wrong driver.
Could anyone please give me a good working tutorial on how to install drivers for this wifi adapter?
And please bare in mind i'm an absolute new regarding linux based operating systems.... so a tutorial which i could simply copy and paste into my terminal would be a gift of the gods to me:)
Please forgive me for my poor English since it is not my native language.
Kind regards,
Bas

Hello Martyna
>because it's not good answer that Linux is not recommended for Toshiba.
In my opinion you have misunderstand something here. I really do not know where you have founded info that Linux is not recommended for Toshiba notebooks. Believe me it is definitely wrong. There are many different Linux distributions and versions that you can use with Toshiba notebooks.
I see there just one problem and it is official Linux support. As you know Toshiba does not support Linux and at the moment you are on your own. Linux OS is very popular and I hope that more and more notebook manufacturers will start with official Linux support.
Bye and good luck!

  • Satellite A100-768 - need video card driver for Win 8

    Hi everybody,
    I cannot find any driver suitable for my Satellite A100-768 where I just installed Win8, my graphic card should be Ati x1400 but nothing work even with Ati and/or toshiba drivers.
    Please help me!

    Hi
    The old Satellite A100-768 isnt Win 8 supported notebook model.
    The notebook was equipped with an ATI X1600 (code: M54P 128MB DDR RAM)graphic chip.
    I dont think that ATI has developed an Win 8 compatible driver for this old graphic chip.
    In my opinion you can use only an standard graphic driver which is part of Win 8 system

  • Satellite A200-1YW - Need storage card driver for Windows 7

    Hello.
    I have problem with installation storage card driver on Windows 7. I can't find the appropriate driver for this model. Pls give me link to this driver.

    Hi
    I assume you mean the Flash Card reader on your notebook?
    The Satellite A200-1YW belongs to the PSAE3 series I think and therefore you can get all drivers here:
    http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Download Drivers
    I have founded driver for Vista 32bit. If you use Windows 7 32bit you should try this driver. Normally it should work.

  • Satellite A100-590 - cannot install Display Driver for Win7

    I installed Win7 on my Satellite A100-590 (PSAA9E-03Z00QGR) today. Everything works fine exept for the display drivers.
    I downloaded the win7/32bit drivers from here: [here|http://at.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=AT&BV_UseBVCook ie=yes&PRODUCT_ID=115970] But when I try to install them, the files extract and then nothing happens.
    Anybody else have this problem or even better a solution? will any other drivers work on that laptop?
    edit: graphic card is a ATI Mobility Radeon X1600

    Extract the files into some new created folder. Open it and use setup.exe.
    What happen when you start it manually using setup.exe?
    You can also try to start setup in folder Bin.

  • Satellite A200-1UP - Need SD card driver for Win 7

    hi guys,
    I need SD card utility working on WINDOWS 7 which i don't fine anywhere.
    I had Vista b4 and worked perfectly on it.
    Now with Windows 7 i keep searching for the driver and cant find it.
    *any ideas,*
    *thanks*

    Of course its listed.
    You should not search in Archive but should choose Notebook in Product Type.
    and its not matter what A300 you will choose check simply any A300 Flash Media driver!

  • Satellite Pro A200 - Need Windows 7 driver for flash card reader

    I have changed from Vista to Windows 7 on my Satellite A200-20N, and now I can't use the flash card reader in it. I have already looked for drivers, but I only find one for vista, also tried to install it, but was not successful.
    How could I use my flash card reader under Windows 7?

    Hi
    Unfortunately I think you can only use the Vista driver and normally they also work on Windows 7.
    Maybe you can explain what not successful means exactly
    Furthermore you can try a newer card reader driver from another notebook model, e. g. Satellite A300.
    Check this!!!

  • Satellite L655-19H - Need graphic card driver for Windows 8

    Hello!
    I have a problem with VGA drivers on my L655-19H in Windows 8. Last drivers on Toshiba site only for windows 7 and don't work with my W8.
    I instal drivers manually, but some games tell me "bad video card drivers". Microsoft drivers dont work too.
    Sry for my english.

    As Silas wrote, the Win 8 system isnt supported for this notebook model.
    I found on Toshiba page an Win 8 supported model matrix and this series isnt listed.
    This means that Win 8 drivers will not be available.
    If you need Win 8 graphic drivers, you will need to search at your own hand on some 3rd party websites like omegadrivers.net or similar.
    As Im not mistaken the notebook uses the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650 graphic chip.

  • Satellite A210-16G Mass Storage Controller driver for Windows Vista 32-bit

    Hello, I need Toshiba Satellite A210-16G Mass Storage Controller driver for Windows Vista 32-bit. If you have setup file, please redirect me, if you have any other file, please explain me where to install it.

    If I were you I would take look to the Drivers Download site of the Toshiba mainpage, because there you can find everything you need.
    The mass storage controller can either be the HDD controller or the SD-card controller. I would download both of them.
    Heres a direct link to the Drivers page: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

  • I need an audio driver for Yoga 13 with Windows 7 Pro 64 bits English

    Hi all,
    I downgraded my Yoga 13 from Windows 8 to Windows 7 pro 64 bits, and ever since then I have a problem with my microphone.
    Skype finds the microphone and can use it, calls are all working fine, but any other program using audio does not work with the microphone.
    After troubleshooting, I concluded that I need to update the driver but I cannot find it. Anything that I find on the Lenovo support pages does not install (event the one found on this page: http://support.lenovo.com/fr/fr/downloads/ds002860​).
    After looking at this post: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Idea-Windows-based-Tab​lets-and/I-need-an-Internet-driver-for-Yoga-13-wit​.... I figured I would to be provided with the link by someone from Lenovo support.
    Here's the hardware ID of the soundcard: HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_506E&SUBSY​S_17AAA001&REV_1000. In Windows it is recognized as High Definition Audio (in the device manager).
    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Hello,
    From looking at the Yoga 13 Hardware Maintenance Manual and downloading the driver package from the Realtek Wireless LAN & Bluetooth Driver for Microsoft Windows 8 (64-bit) - IdeaPad Yoga 13 page and extracting (but not running) it to look at the contents, it appears the Yoga 13 uses a wireless LAN card based on Realtek RTL8732 chipset. 
    I would suggest that you try downloading the drivers, expanding, but not installing them on to a USB flash drive or SD card, then plugging that into the Yoga 13, running the Device Manager (filename: DEVMGMT.MSC), clicking on the appropriate entry for the wireless network adapter, selecting update, and then choosing the Browse my computer for driver software option, pointing that to the location of the unpacked drivers.  Perhaps Device Manager will find the correct drivers to install that way.

  • I need the correct driver for an infrared remote control (ENE CIR receiver) for Pavilion DV4-2173nr

    I need the correct driver for an infrared remote control (ENE CIR receiver) for Pavilion DV4-2173nr.
    The receiver that came with my notebook is a black model one (see picture below), with the following information in its bottom label:
    RC1762302/00
    3139 228 50021
    HP SPS: 435743-001
    HP: HSTNN-PRO7
    RC6 ir
    CP06 60808 A 146218 REV. B
    I never managed to make it work, from the very beginning. I know it is working, because I replaced the battery for a brand new one and it shows a blinking IR LED when I press any button and point it to a digital camera.
    Searching for "ENE CIR receiver driver" is useless 'cause I received more than one hundred answers - I tried four of them but none worked so far. 
    So, instead of trying the whole bunch, I am crying for help -  could someone please tell me which driver is the correct one for this remote model?
    Thanks in advance and regards,
    Mike

    FX400 is not among the notebooks verified to work with Win8 (http://event.msi.com/2012/windows8/index.html). Therefor MSI won't provide any drivers or support for using Win 8 on this computer.
