Satellite U200-181. Slow touchpad under Linux

I use two operating systems on my Toshiba Satellite U200-181.
They are: MS Windows XP Home, and Debian GNU Linux Etch (stable).
In MS Windows XP all the touchpad 's functions work fine, but there are some troubles under Linux:
- cursor is moving very slowly when I am moving my finger over touchpad surface. Changind pointer speed acceleration in mouse preference dialog does nothing (I use Gnome 2 desktop environment).
- tapping on the touchpad surface does not emulate left button pressing as it does in MS Windows.
Can anybody help me to configure touchpad so that it works in Linux as it does in MS Windows.
Thank you, Mikhail.

Well you should use this app
http://qsynaptics.sourceforge.net/
Also touchpad and mouse movement can be adjusted by adjusting /etc/X11/xorg.conf file (but be carefull allways create backup).
Try to type something like this
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Alps Touchpad"
Driver "synaptics"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/event2"
Option "Protocol" "event"
Option "LeftEdge" "120"

Satellite U200-181 Built-in HDD ERROR

I've bought "Toshiba Satellite U200-181" 2 weeks ago. Recently (2-3 days ago) Ive got problem with built-in HDD.
So the problem is that sometimes I'm getting the message "Built-in HDD ERROR" during Notebook startup. This message "Built-in HDD ERROR" appears from time to time and system stops booting from HDD, but can boot from other bootable devices. First time when message "Built-in HDD ERROR" occurred, it was accompanied by lot of strange clapper pop noise from inside of the Notebook. All other
"Built-in HDD ERROR" messages were accompanied with not so loud and strange clapper pop noise, but still with some pop sounds (not as loud as at first time).
To identify possible problems I saved S.M.A.R.T. data log (see appendix#1).
Additional information: After I've purchased the Notebook Ive made successful BIOS upgrade from version 1.40 to version 1.50 strictly according Toshiba official web-site instructions. After BIOS upgrade system worked well, no ERRORS, no faults. But 3days ago I got "Built-in HDD ERROR" message.
Any ideas? Thank you.

I recommend you to contact Toshiba service partner in your country as soon as possible. The unit is new one and something like this should not happen. Explain them the situation and you will see what they can do about it.
You can also contact your local dealer and try to exchange the unit to new one.

How can I see the quantity of battery cycles on Satellite U200-181?

I have Satellite U200-181, and I use it hard, every. I want to be ready replace my battery, when it will have 400 cycles.
How can I see the quantity of battery cycles on my laptop?

You must not see this. You will see that capacity of the battery drops down and will be empty after short time. Nobody say that you will be able to use battery 400 cycles only. Maybe you will be lucky and the battery will have longer life time.
My Tecra M1 is about 4 years old and still working with original battery.
Your question is pretty unusual and I am really interested about further comments.

How to reset password on Satellite U200-181?

Greetings!
Sorry for my English.
I have notebook Toshiba Satellite U200-181 and all documents from it (check, warranty).
When the computer starts, it demands to enter the BIOS password... I called in the service center in Russia, but they told me then they have not any Response Codes
I have PC Serial No. and Challenge Code... What I need doing now? I dont want pay about 70$ for reset password... please help :)
Best Regards, Sergey

Hello Sergey
Please do not be mad on me but you do not understand how it works. To reset BIOS password Toshiba control center needs code given by your notebook model. After short time they send one new code back and after entering this code the BIOS password will be deleted.
Just authorized service provider in your country can contact Toshiba control center and just service will get the information back. With short words: private person like you have no chance to delete BIOS password. I hope you understand it why. If not let me know I will explain you.
Sorry but you must contact service.

Can I insert HDD 160GB in Satellite U200-181

Dear Friends!
Whether I can insert HDD 160 Gb in laptop Toshiba U200-181?
Version BIOS 3.40
Thanks!

Hi
Hmmm, the snipe's comment is not 100% right.
If the HDD size is not supported the BIOS will not recognize the HDD!!!
I think you could use an HD up to 120GB but I'm not sure about the bigger sizes.
You should really test it before you will purchase one.

Satellite U200-181 - How to add extra RAM?

Hi
I've enjoyed my U200-181 very much, but would like to have some extra RAM in addition to 512 Mb installed by default. How can I do that?
How many SO-DIMM slots available? Are there any disassembly instructions?
Thanks in advance

changing the memory is very easy.
1. pull off the black strip above the keyboard (it just snaps in place)
2. remove the 2 screws
3. pivot keyboard forward being careful not to damage keyboard cable
4. remove 2 screws on big metal plate on the right.
5. remove plate to expose 2 x ddr2 200 pin sodimm slots.

Satellite U200-181 - compatibile DVD-ROMs

Hello
I have a question regarding compatibile DVD drives for Tohsiba U200-181.
I looked through this forum and found info that only UJDA765 and UJ-842
are compatibile with my laptop. I originaly had UJ-842 and tried to replace
it with UJDA765 but with no luck. CD ROM error during startup.
Many beay seller advertise other models e.g. UJ-832, UJ-862 as compatibile for this model too.
So i tried using UJ-862 removed from Toshiba U300 also with no luck.
I would appreciate any info on acceptable models or ways of
installing any of the new like UJ-862.
Thanks in advance

I guess the usage of other CD/DVD drives would not be possible because of compatibility problems. Even if other optical disk drives would fit in the ODD bay, the BIOS would not recognize it correctly.
But I think the info about compatible drive in user manual refers only to the optical disk drives which were provided with the different U200 models.
So possibly other ODDs could be compatible but this can be just tested at your own hand

Satellite Pro L300 - ACPI issues under Linux: buggy dsdt implementation

Hi, I have an L300 with Insyde 1.50 BIOS and I have been struggling with ACPI under Linux (as have many others, the web is littered with hacks and workarounds for this notebook). After enabling acpi debugging in the kernel, I noticed that some capabilites were marked as unsupported. Decompiling and recompiling with Intel's iasl, I noticed this:
Method (_OSC, 5, NotSerialized)
Store (Arg3, Local0)
Multiply (Local0, 0x04, Local1)
Name (BUF1, Buffer (Local1) {})
Store (Arg4, BUF1)
Store (Zero, Local1)
Store (Zero, Local2)
While (Local0)
Multiply (Local1, 0x04, Local2)
CreateDWordField (BUF1, Local2, CAPB)
If (Arg2)
If (LEqual (Local1, Zero))
And (CAPB, 0xFFFFFFFC)
Else
Increment (Local1)
Decrement (Local0)
Return (BUF1)
Clearly this does not follow the ACPI spec (of which Toshiba is(was?) an active partner listed on all the documentation). From my limited understanding of the spec:
1) Method(_OSC... should list 4 rather than 5 args
2) Method (_OSC... should be Serialized as it contains a Name declaration.
2a) Alternatively the Name(.... declaration could be replaced with a local variable of some sort?
3) And (CAPB, 0xFFFFFFFC) should have a result field. I looked for side effects in the spec, but found none, so really this whole if else block does nothing as far as I can see. This is where my understanding of the spec lets me down. I'm not really sure what the original intent of the code is, so I don't know what it should be doing (although my best guess is that is supposed to apply a bit mask to BUF1?).
I hope someone more knowledgeable can help me resolve this with either a BIOS upgrade for this notebook (best) or a temporary fix to my DSDT so that I can send sufficient info for the Linux ACPI developers work around the problems (not as good because it leaves other alternative OS's out of the loop).
Thanks for your time and consideration
Phen.

hi phoenp,
seems that you are realy deep in this stuff ...
how about joining a developer group - i am not kidding!
if you get this kernel running with workarounds and / or able to fix this bios
i am sure you will be needed to support a developer group.
as long as models like this is sold with windows the support on linux will be poor.
developing drivers for only one special notebook is too expensive...

Satellite U200-181: How can I check if Trusted Platform Module is present

How can I check Trusted Platform module is present or not?

Hi
The configuration of TPM (trusted platform module) is carried out in the BIOS setup program and this function is provided only with some models.
I dont know if the U200-181 supports this or not but you can check it yourself.
The security controller settings should be available in BIOS system Setup on the second site.
If the unit supports the TPM you should see the switch to enable or disable this security option. Usually as per default the TPM is disabled.

Satellite U200-181 - Sound is not playing after Vista Ultimate upgrade

I have restore Win XP from Recovery Disk and upgrade to Windows Vista Ultimate. After reinstalling sound drivers (which installed correctly) i have no sound in my system. All volumes maximal and not mute. It seems like program sound off (by sound jogdial pressing). But all volumes at right level and not mute.

Hi buddy,
I have an idea which might help you:
Go to www.realtek.com download the drivers there, uninstall the drivers from the Toshiba website and install the drivers which youve downloaded from the realtek website.
Regardless if its working or not, give a short reply. Would appreciate it. :)

Satellite U200-181 aperiodical BSOD on Vista

Hello!
Anybody know anything about BSOD in Vista in this Model of Notebook?
Aperiodicaly I get error BSOD with this record in logs:
> Event name: BlueScreen

> OS Version: 6.0.6001.2.1.0.256.4
> BCCode: 44

> OS Version: 6_0_6001

> Service Pack: 1_0
>
> Product: 256_1
is any solutions for this?

Hi
The BSOD error can be caused by serious software issue or hardware problem.
In your case its not easy to say what causes this BSOD.
When did you notice this BSOD error? Did it appear from first time?
Did you install any 3rd applications which could be a reason for such issue?
I mean software compatibility problems.
Last but not least a BSOD can be caused by faulty RAM module.
I had a similar issue and finally Ive found out that one of my modules malfunctioned.

Portege Z930 - slow Wi-Fi on battery under Linux

Hi,
I've just bought a Z930 and I run it under Linux Mint and Windows 7.
I've a problem under Linux that I don't have on Windows.
When I put my computer on battery, there is a significative signal lowering.
Do somebody why there is such a problem ? Can we fix it by configuring my network device ?
Thanks for your help !
Badmaul

Sounds like the Wifi driver needs updating, perhaps try an Ubuntu Live CD v12 and see how that goes. Ubuntu is very Toshiba friendly now.

Re: Memory upgrade on Satellite U200

Where is the memory located on this model as can not see it with any removableable panel?
Ta

Do you mean the Satellite U200?
The RAM slots are placed under the keyboard. So you must remove the keyboard holder (between keyboard and LCD), remove the screws securing the keyboard and then remove the keyboard.
On the right side are the memory cover and the RAM slots.
I have no experience with notebook disassembling, to go an local ASP and ask an technician for help.

ARIAL FONT IN REPORTS(WINDOWS), NOT SHOWN CORRECTLY UNDER LINUX

Our Reports are developed under Windows (Report Builder 9.0.4.0.33 and Windows 2000/Windows XP) and generated under Linux (IAS 10.1.2.0.2 with Red Hat Advanced Server). The Report Output is a PDF, that will be downloaded by the user with WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT. This works fine, but fonts are not shown correctly in the PDF, especially ARIAL, which is the font we use.
I have run the Fontsolution Configuration Script from Metalink, but we still have a problem.
When you look at the font.pdf, wich is the testreport from fontsolutions, some sizes and styles of Arial are printed correctly others not.
Arial 8 is ok, but Arial 10 and Arial 12 are something like Times New Roman.
Arial 12 Bolded is correct, but Arial 12 italic and Arial 12 bold italic are also not
the Arial Font.
How can we correct this problem?
Regards
Udo

# DESCRIPTION:
# Each line is of the form:
# <Face>.<Size>.<Style>.<Weight>.<Width>.<CharSet> = \
# <Face>.<Size>.<Style>.<Weight>.<Width>.<CharSet>
# The <Face> must be the name (string/identifier) of a font face. The
# <Style>, <Weight>, <Width>, and <CharSet> may either be a numeric
# value or a predefined identifier/string. For example, both US7ASCII
# and 1 are valid <CharSet> values, and refer to the same character set.
# The <Size> dimension must be an explicit size, in points.
# The following is a list of recognized names and their numeric
# equivalents:
# Styles Numeric value
# Plain 0
# Italic 1
# Oblique 2
# Underline 4
# Outline 8
# Shadow 16
# Inverted 32
# Overstrike 64
# Blink 128
# Weights Numeric value

# Ultradense 1
# Extradense 2
# Dense 3
# Semidense 4
# Normal 5
# Semiexpand 6
# Expand 7
# Extraexpand 8
# Ultraexpand 9
# Styles may be combined; you can use plus ("+") to delimit parts of a
# style. For example,
# Arial..Italic+Overstrike = Helvetica.12.Italic.Bold
# are equivalent, and either one will map any Arial that has both Italic
# and Overstrike styles to a 12-point, bold, italic Helvetica font.
# All strings are case-insensitive in mapping. Font faces are likely to
# be case-sensitive on lookup, depending on the platform and surface, so
# care should be taken with names used on the right-hand side; but they
# will be mapped case-insensitively.
# See your platform documentation for a list of all supported character
# sets, and available fonts.

# This is the printer configuration file.
# The format for entries in this file is:
# <OSName>:<Type>:<Version>:<Long Name>:<Description File>:
# The first field is the name of the printer. It is the name you give

# The second field is the type of driver to be used for the printer.
# Currently, "PostScript" and "ASCII" are the only types of driver for
# printers supported for now. But in future we may be supporting
# drivers for other printer types.
# The third field is the version of the type of printer driver. It's 1

# The fourth field is a long description of the printer. This will be
# presented to the user in the "Choose Printer" dialog window.
# The fifth field is the printer description file to be used. For
# PostScript printers it is the PPD file of the printer. (This field is

If you want to make platform independent use of fonts, you have to use the family, such as sans serif.
Arial is owned by monotype (http://monotype.com/). You have to contact them if you wish to redistribute it with your application. They also might have a suitable version that renders nicely under linux.

Satellite U200-115 - CD Rom error - can't activate the drive from windows

Hi everyone,
I'm having some problems with my DVD rewriter drive on my Satellite U200-115.
It works very intermittently and whenever I power up the machine, the first notice I get is 'cd-rom error' even though there is no disc in the drive.
I can't activate the drive from windows either (icon in system tray).
There is the odd occassion when the drive does work in windows but this is so infrequent that I can't remember the last time (I think it was back in Nov 08).
I want to restore the system as I am getting a lot of windows file icons instead of the proper icons for images e.g. pdf, doc, etc. but am worried that the drive wont read the disc or will stop working during the recovery process.
Any ideas would be gratefully received.
Best WIshes
Nick

If its a software issue the drive will not stop working during the recovery procedure.
Do you get a CD-ROM error in Windows?
You could try to boot from a Linux boot disk. If this work it would be a software problem and not a hardware problem.
Maybe this article from the Microsoft Knowledge Base can help you:
