Sol 10 x86 on Toshiba Satelite M30X-122/132

On both Laptops (Centrino) Sun Solaris runs flawless, but only one thing not (WLan Inel ipw2200).
Thinked that i will write this here, to show good news from the modern Laptop View.

You may want to submit that information for inclusion in the HCL:

Booting from alternate disk in Sol 10 x86 1/06

Hey all--
I'm trying to set up a mirrored root filesystem on an x86 box with two IDE disks. It's running solaris 10 1/06. I've done this plenty of times on sparc boxes, but only once on an x86 box and after the metaroot, I had to edit bootenv.rc to point back to the "first" disk to get it to boot. That was with an older Solaris 10 release.
I'm reading what I think is conflicting information from the SVM doc in the Solaris 10 book at docs.sun.com, various blog entries ( like this one from Mr Jelinek -- http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/jerrysblog?entry=solaris_volume_manager_x86_root ) and I'm confused now.
My main question is, do I need to manually put bootblocks on the second drive? My disks appear to have identical x86 partitioning as well as Solaris partitioning, and don't contain the now-deprecated x86 boot partition.
Page 126 of the current (12/05) SVM manual says:
You must specify slice 2 of the disk as the device, and slice 2 must comprise the
entire disk.
# installboot /usr/platform/i86pc/lib/fs/ufs/pboot \
/usr/platform/i86pc/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s2but.. pboot appears to be missing in the latest Solaris 10 release.
So does anyone know what the current situation is? Do you need to put bootblocks on the second disk in the latest Solaris 10? And if so, how? :) thanks!

bad 12/05 SVM manual..bad! :)
If I had done the RTFM thing like one is supposed to, I would have seen this bit of information:
# man installboot
     The installboot utility is a SPARC only program. It is not
     supported   on   the    architecture.    users   should use
     installgrub(1M) instead.I assume "the architecture" here could be better written as "the x86 architecture" :)
and of course, this makes sense, since the Sol 10 x86 1/06 release clearly boots with GRUB. I suppose I should also get my learn on for the other binaries:
# man -k grub
bootadm         bootadm (1m)    - manage bootability of GRUB-enabled operating system
grub            grub (5)        - GRand Unified Bootloader software on Solaris
installgrub     installgrub (1m)    - install GRUB in a disk partition or a floppyI'll confirm boot-ability later today when I take the machine into the lab. But I think I'm on the right track.
This is a great forum and I've learned a lot by reading it. many thanks to all the posters!

I just downloaded and installed the new iTunes on a Toshiba Satelite of some age. It was just completely reformated and updated with XP. iTunes will not open. The terms page comes up and when I agree it disappears. I have uninstalled and reinstalled.

Toshiba Satelite A125-2326 drivers needed

Hi All, I need system driver help. I reinstalled the Windows XP sp3 OS on my laptop updated all updates and still need a few drivers that I can not find. Laptop model is a Toshiba Satelite A125-2326. I am looking for the drivers for Audio Device on High Definition Audio bus Ethernet controller Modem device on High Definition Audio bus SMS bus controller 2 so called unknown devices Vidio controller (VGA compatible) as stated by device manager, I am not looking for one of those sites that you have to pay for, when I fell that this is something that Toshiba should provide for their laptops for free, since I paid for them already when I bought this laptop. Thanks to all for your help and advice.

Hello
Visit Toshiba download page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp and there you will find latest display driver for your notebook model.

Toshiba satelite S855-S5188 Freaks out and doesn't respond

Hey, i bought a Toshiba Satelite S855-S5188 from NewEgg.com about two months ago, at first i thought it was nothing, which then Subsequently it ceased to occur for a period of time but now it has been starting back up, this time i have to Shut it down in order to stop it from continuing and to gain control of it again.
What happens is, Randomly, With no specific Action, it becomes Unresponsive, like when i type it doens't want to type and then it Zooms in and out Crazy like, not only that the Cap locks seems to freak out as well, like the light that shows Caps are on is lit up, but the keys come out as if it's off and then the numbers come out as symbols as if i am Holding the Shift key down. this doesn't seem to happen with any one application, it happens when i play World of Warcraft or just simply turn the laptop on to log into Facebook and i am sending a message. I hope it's something Easily fixed and this is my first Toshiba Laptop ever, as i only ever had two laptops this one included, but if some people are expierencing the same issue and such a response on the matter would be much appreciated, Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Since it's under warranty, Matthew, I would call Tech Support at 1-800-457-7777 about the problem. When you first got it, it could have been immediately exchanged for another by NewEgg. I believe you have had a bad keyboard from the beginning. The repair will be free under warranty.

Sol 10 X86 with Qlogic 1280 controller

Sol 10 X86 installation problem: System has two internal disks, 1 quantum SCSI 6 gb, which was UNconnected. One Seagate 18 GB SCSI from Qlogic 1280 controller with Sol 9 installed. Disconnected Seagate to play with the old Quantum drive. Problem was the Qlogic controller driver. Installation failed after numerous attempts. I finally decided to install Sol 9 on Quantum and try an upgrade. Sol 9 succeeded but 10 failed, still due to the 1280 driver, which is downloaded from Qlogic and installed to a diskette with dd. Tried downloading the driver again to see if there was an upgrade. The product is discontinued. The driver is for up to Sol 9.
Finally gave up and decided to make the Quantum drive non bootable and try to incorporate it into the Sol 9 installation on the Seagate disk with DiskSuite. Ran fdisk and deleted the boot partition on the Quantum. Reconnected Seagate drive and booted with both drives powered up. System failed to boot at all. Now my primary drive is trashed somehow. I went through another Sol 9 installation on Seagate, using the preserve data option. Still wouldn't boot as of last night. Gotta love this.

Sol 10 x86 not recognizing hard disk

Hi,
I am trying to install Sol 10 x86 V 6/06 on a HP DL585. I am installing from a CD. When it is time to install the software , I get an error, found no disks . These are 72Gb disks. The hardware is supported under hcl. Are there any extra drivers I need for the install cd to recognize

Either the HDD is dead or the connection cable is faulty. Take out the HDD and place it in an enclosure and connect it to the MBP via USB. The start the MBP with the OPTION key held down. If the external HDD is recognized, click on it and se if it boots the MBP. If it does, then it is the cable that is the problem. Otherwise the problem lies with the HDD.
Ciao.

Toshiba satelite E45-B4200 wont boot up

Hi , I recently bought my Toshiba satelite E45-B4200. Unfortunately for last couple of days my system wont boot up. I dont think its a windows issue beacause i dont even see the toshiba logo which usually shows while booting up the system. When i power it on, The LED light around power button lights up for a second and then turns off autometically and nothing happens. Here is what i already tried : 1. Pressed the Power button for more than 30 Second while charging adopter was connected.( Power light indicator at the front blinked once)2. Tried pressing Power button for more than 30 Second disconnecting the power adopter. ( Power light indicator at the front blinked once)3. Removed battery and connected to power adopter only then tried booting up . Did not work as well . I was trying to access the RAM inside but it turns out there was no easy access. Can anyone help me out to reslove this please? Does anyone have a disassemble guide or a Video tutorial ? TIA

Sounds like you may have a short in the motherboard, you may also have a bad charger. If the battery is too low it can cause these symptoms. I would try to obtain another power supply and attempt to turn it on with it, If that fails I would send it in for repair.

Gamma correction in Sol 10 x86

Does anyone know a way to correct the gamma value in Sol 10 x86?

I'd like to know how to do this myself.

HT1926 Why does Itunes installed on a Toshiba Satelite with windows 8 not recognize my Ipone or Ipad?

Why does Itunes installed on a Toshiba Satelite with windows 8 not recognize my Iphone or Ipad?

It's possible that charger damaged some part of the connection on the iPad. There's little metal contacts on that small silicon chip sticking out of the port and if something happens to one of those little contacts it can effect how it works.
You can try taking it into an apple store and have them look at it. If you'd only used 'official' stuff there'd probably be no question but once they know that the damage, potential damage, was caused by a third party device, then it may be up to the discretion of the manager what they do with it. Whether they replace it under warranty or decide that the warranty is void (I honestly don't know how strict they can be with the use of third party devices and how they may/may not work)

MySQL on Sol.7 x86

Hi there,
Has anyone compiled MySQL on Sol.7 x86?
When I try that, I failed at configuration phase, I got the zero size of "char" error, and MySQL suggested me
to check "libm.a" and I've found it's right there, "/lib" and "/usr/lib"
So what caused the "zero size of char" error?
(The GCC I used is 2.95.2)
Thanks for any help!

After some troubleshooting and a bit of luck, the problem is the following:
The December update KB3008923 (Cumulative Update for IE December 2014) was causing the problem on IE9.
The update released on January 2015 KB3025945 is fixing the issue.
This is not an update available through WSUS so you have to look for it at
http://catalog.update.microsoft.com.
There is a bit more information, the problem is recurring but I did not found which task was causing the error so it was not only the installation that was causing the problem. After installing the KB3008923, the problem was present on any x86 Windows 7
computer running any version of configMgr agent (tested on 2012 SP1 and 2012 R2).
After installing the January update, the problem is gone.

M30X-122 RAM upgrade

Hi,
I want to upgrade the RAM of my M30X-122 notebook. I took a 1 GB RAM Modul, which should be compatible (PC133 CL 2.5 PC2700).
The bios recognoizes the RAM correct. Memtest doesn't find errors, but my windows (XP Pro) is very unstable now.
Every two minutes the notebook crashes with various error messages (Application error, shutdown error "IRQ_LESS_OR_EQUAL" ....
They all refer to hardware problems, but according to memtest the RAMs is ok.
Does anyone have some advice?
Thanks a lot
Peter

Hi
Well, its not very easy to say why it happens. But according to your description the issue occurs after the ram upgrade. I dont know if how you have checked the memory but its possible that the module has a fault despite of memory test.
You should check if this error appears with different memory modules.
I have found a information that these modules are compatible:
PC2700 256MB (PA3311U-1M25)
PC2700 512MB (PA3312U-1M51)
PC2700 1024MB (PA3313U-1M1G)

Can I download windows 7 to toshiba satelite C855D from windows 8.1

was looking for way to turn this toshiba satelite c855d which I upgraded to the 8.1 but would rather have windows 7 on here.

You need to post your full model number for us to check for you!
To partially answer your question, only the drivers can be downloaded if available not the windows 7 operating system, that would have to be purchased for install

Toshiba Satelite A305-S6858 Reboots and could not load Vista Normally but can run Safemode only

Please help me... I love this Toshiba Satelite A305-S6858 and I keep getting this problem. I already tried to disable legacy support and the memory test says 4GB is working fine. Please help me.

Satellite A305-S6858
Let's start here.
Boot into Safe Mode and open System Properties (sysdm.cpl). On the Advanced tab, click the Settings button at the bottom (under Startup and Recovery).
What is the state of the Automatically restart check box? If it's checked, clear it.
What is the state of the two fields at the bottom? Set things for a mini-dump as shown below.
Does that give you a blue screen when you boot normally?

Toshiba Satelite SA60-672

I am looking to make my Toshiba Satelite SA60-672 laptop wireless for the internet and stuff, but I dont know which card to choose (PCIMIA or mini card or something) and from reading another post theres meant to be a button on the right that you can move to turn on and off, well you can see where its meant to be, but you cant move it :S
Can anyone help me??
Thank you
Benji

Hi again Benji
I didnt try it because I use mini card in my notebook but some friends of mine have PCMCIA wireless cards. One of them has Conceptronic Wireless 54Mbps PC Card and another one has Netgear WG511 Wireless PCMCIA Card 54Mbit 802.11g. Both of them work properly.
Pick up some information and ask some experts in electronic store which one will be good for your notebook.
Good luck!
