Rui CarmoThe Toshiba Portégé M100 was my corporate laptop around 2005, and I tended to subject it to random bouts of wanton cruelty until my company wised up and provided me with a PowerBook.
(Just kidding. I actually liked it a lot, and picked it due to its small size, built-in everything, and removable DVD - which I replaced with an add-on battery pack.)
Fedora Core 4 notes:
X.Org Extensions
Trying to enable the XComposite extension to use Skippy-XD crashes Firefox (apparently due to some issues with the Flash plugin). Nevertheless, it is easy enough to do by editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
...
Section "Extensions"
Option "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection
...
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "i810"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "Intel 852"
# Not sure if these are properly supported on i810
Option "RenderAccel" "true"
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
EndSection
The Firefox crashes can be fixed by adding the following line to /usr/bin/firefox:
export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1
Suspend/Resume
Following up on my HOWTO/Enable Toshiba Bluetooth Support In Fedora Core 4, here are my ACPI tweaks for suspend/resume with NetworkManager reset (I also remove the default ACPI event, which shuts down your machine upon hitting power):
# cat /etc/acpi/events/lid.conf event=button[/]lid action=/etc/acpi/actions/sleep.sh # cat /etc/acpi/events/sleep.conf event=button[/]sleep action=/etc/acpi/actions/sleep.sh # cat /etc/acpi/actions/sleep.sh #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/dbus-send --system --dest=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager \ --type=method_call /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager \ org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.sleep /sbin/hwclock --systohc echo -n mem > /sys/power/state /sbin/hwclock --hctosys /usr/bin/dbus-send --system --dest=org.freedesktop.NetworkManager \ --type=method_call /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager \ org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.wake # cat /etc/fnfxd/fnfxd.conf | grep F3 action(key="Fn-F3"; command="suspend to ram")
