Hi everyone. Hope you all will be doing good as far as your linux machines are concerned
. I have some problems with my centrino laptop from toshiba. I have surfed through the internet but I have hardly come accross issues related to linux on centrino laptops from toshiba. As far as I know even Intel has launched the wifi driver for linux but it works only for kernels 2.6 and above. The kernel version I am using is 2.4.22. I am seeking ome help in regards to solving the problem of wireless connectivity, modem connectivity and one strange problem of graphics. I installed the kernel source and then compiled the graphic's driver's own kernel module, so the graphic display is working fine but when I go to any of the consoles by pressing ctrl+alt+F1-F6, I find a console where the fonts are of the size which cover half of the screen and also there is a dashed texture in the background. Basically, it's all a mess and I can't see anything clearly. I have been dealing with such problems since many months and have relied on articles and tutorials so far but I have never found a solution partucularly for my laptop. So guys, if you have something to offer in this regard, please help me out.
The model number of my Toshiba centrino laptop is M35-S320.
The confiuration is as follows:
Intel pentium M processor 1.50 GHz
60 GB HDD and 768 RAM (it had 512 installed and i added 256)
NVIDIA GeForce FX Go5200 with 32 MB DDR video memory
15.4' diagonal WXGA display
Integrated Intel Pro/wireless 2200 802.11g network connection
i.LInk(IEEE 1394) port and SD slot
Waiting for a reply as soon as possible. Thanks.
