== Current Issues ==
 * WLAN does not work out-of-the-box (requires Ndiswrapper), see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/ToshibaSatelliteL40-14N
 * Needs latest vanilla kernel (atm. 2.6.26-rc4)

== System Info ==
 * $ sudo dmidecode -s system-manufacturer:
   TOSHIBA
 * $ sudo dmidecode -s system-product-name
   Satellite L300
 * $ sudo dmidecode -s system-version

== Install Guide ==
There is a german install guide [[http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/174887/|here]].

In short:
  * hardy kernel crashes into busybox, so you have to
  * dowload latest 2.6.25.4 or 2.6.26-rc4 (tested) kernel quellcode
    * wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.25.4.tar.bz2
  * first install minimal gutsy (network is broken)
  * get my .config from http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/download/10829/
  * compile und install kernel 
     * mkdir ~/kernel && cd ~/kernel
     * cp /media/stick/linux-2.6.25.4.tar.bz2 .
     * /media/stick/.config .
     * tar xjf linux-2.6.25.4.tar.bz2 && cd linux-2.6.25.4
     * cp ../.config .
     * make -j2 && sudo make install && make modules_install
  * change /boot/grub/menu.lst (don't use UUID but root=/dev/sdaX resume=/dev/sdaY ro vga=791) sdaX is your root and sdaY is your swap partition
  * deactivate /usr/sbin/update-grub (include exit 0 at the top)
  * reboot
  * now you have working ethernet, upgrade to hardy
  * reboot
  * compile und install the 2.6.26-rc4 kernel again (make mrproper && cp ../.config .) and don't delete this kernel directory!
  * optional make a sym-link in /lib/firmware/ to allow external devices load firmware (ln -s 2.6.24-17-generic `uname -r`)

== camera ==
 * svn checkout svn://svn.berlios.de/linux-uvc/linux-uvc/trunk uvc-trunk
 * cd uvc-trunk
 * make
 * sudo cp uvcvideo.ko /lib/modules/<kernelname> ( = uname -r )
 * sudo depmod
 * sudo modprobe uvcvideo
 * sudo aptitude install luvcview
 * luvcview -s 640x480 -f yuv 

== modem ==
Not supported soft modem.

== conclusion ==
The latest vanilla kernel fixes all bugs (reported by [[LaptopTestingTeam/ToshibaSatelliteL40-14N]])
The only thing still not working is the built-in USB Realtek RTL8187B WLAN adapter.
