@de_Selby those scripts unfortunately did not change that erratic brightness changing behaviour. I tested them in bash, they seem to correctly identify current LCD intensity, but brightness still...

Hi, I think I now figured out why my laptop was downscaling to 1/4 of normal speed in Windows, but only to 1/2 in Linux. Yesterday, I installed ThrottleStop under Windows, and found, that Toshiba...

11/04 was faster to boot and sleep for sure. But I will stay in 11/10 because it has improved SMB networking speed. Previously, I could not get smooth playback of HD videos (4-8GB mkv) over wifi from...

Hi, people

Anybody using Oneiric and solved brightness regulation problem?

In the Gnome2 there was very usefull Keyboard shortcut menu, where I could redefine Brightness keys with
sudo...

FYI, Bios was updated to 2.1 some time ago. I could not find changelog.

Hi, how do you set CIFSMaxBufSize=130048?
I created cifs.conf with this in /etc/modprobe.d/
rebooted
when I do mount -t cifs .... -o ... ,rsize=130048
and then cat /proc/mounts

yes, I have had 2 random logouts and one freeze during last 2 weeks. Cannot see any system in that though, except that I also have patched toshset and it happens only when not plugged in.

I have R630, and microphone works in Natty. No issues at all.

Yes, I have. Is that bad? What does it mean?
This is the most power efficient and most responsive ubuntu install I ever had, but I need to note, that under W7, CPU scales down to 25% of max...

bluetooth is always off when my laptop boots and after suspend.

Somehow, in order to activate bluetooth, I need to send "off" command first, otherwise it doesn't work. so I added this command as...

My experience with Natty is so far much better than with Maverick. No freezes. I did clean reinstall on my R630. Out of the gate there is no working toshset and 2 finger scroll, and brightness...

I have kept Win7 dualbooting alongside Linux. Which was very necessary until this cold freeze problem was solved.
Did you already wipe out Windows? Other manufacturers like Asus, usually have...

seems to have solved this problem for me.

I am on 64 bit Maverick. In my case, video worked so that my opponents could see me, and worked in cheese. But I could not see neither myself, neither opposite end's video. This was solved by editing...

Ola! I just might have good news. After applying new BIOS (from 2010-12-15), ver.1.8 cold freezes are gone. At least in my setup - latest Maverick kernel with all updates and backports applied....

as much as I love ubuntu, I went away to Win7 until this cold start bug is sorted out. I cannot afford to loose my work everytime I wakeup my laptop without AC.

nope, but still hope that somebody will help us

re: cold freezes.
Today, I had more time to study this issue. It happens only in Linux, Windows is ok. This morning I used laptop outside, it is quite cold there, so machine was getting colder...

Hi,I want to share another solution to brightness regulation after suspend. I went into "keyboard shortcuts" and added new ones for

Thanks, but those are vanilla kernel sources, i.e. without any ubuntu customizations.

I need source of this 2.6.36 or 2.37 with Ubuntu patches. This is due to the fact that I have toshiba laptop, and toshiba_acpi compiled in Maverick doesn't work properly. However, there is a patch...

Hi, where can I get Linux kernel source for version 2.6.36 with Ubuntu patches? I see 2.6.36 debs on kernel.ubuntu.com alongside with 3 .patches files. Are those patches that need to be applied to...
