## page was renamed from LaptopTestingTeam/Old/ToshibaTecraM7 ## page was copied from LaptopTestingTeam/ToshibaTecraM7 * Contact: JustinDugger * Brand: Toshiba * Make : Tecra * Model: M7 == Current Issues == * '''Major:''' Tablet rotate doesn't happen automatically. There are ready to use scripts (two sorts of them) on the web to do this for you. * '''Major:''' Can't toggle video out. You can tune xorg.conf yourself to make video-out work as you want it to (sorta very complicated to get it all the ways right). Bug [[http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=14071|#14071]] * '''Moderate:''' Have to [[https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WacomTroubleshooting|tune xorg.conf]] to get digitizer (Tablet) work perfectly. At least install and use wacom-tools to configure pen correctly. * '''Moderate:''' Fingerprint reader doesn't work automatically. But it's easy to setup ThinkFinger to do the job. * '''Minor:''' Have to set up tablet keys and joypad yourself by the means of "thirdparty" packages (there are plenty of them for any taste). Feel free to contact me (Bulat on a launchpad.com site) to resolve this issues. On my Toshiba Tecra M7 I have working with Hardy (8.04.1): * digitizer(Tablet), * mirror video-out, * automatic tablet screen rotation, * fingerprint support for loggin in, * sound working simultaneously in several applications and built-in mic working in Skype. It's all on the web, so you can at first try to figure it out yourself - it's not so hard. P.S. Don't know what to do with TPM and 3D Accelerometer and how to test them - maybe there is support in Ubuntu. 3D Accelerometer should be fun thing - you can tilt you laptop to give it commands (there's such software for other OSes). :) == Development Issues == == System Info == Hardy and Intrepid tested on * Contact: Bulat (on a launchpad.com site) * Toshiba Tecra M7 * Intel Core Duo T2500 * 2GB Memory * 100 GB harddrive * 14.1" WXGA+ 1440 x 900 native resolution * Intel GMA950 (optional NVIDIA Quadro NVS 110M 256MB VRAM) * Intel® PRO/1000 VE Network Connection * Intel® PRO/Wireless Network Connection 3945ABG * CD-RW/Dual Layer DVD+-RW * 56k Modem * SD, xD, MMC, MemoryStick, MemoryStickPro slot * Firewire * Optional Bluetooth * Wacom digitizer * Convertable from laptop to tablet mode * Fingerprint reader * Windows XP Tablet Edition 2005 * WLAN killswitch on front * Trusted Platform Module (TPM) * 3D Accelerometer Dapper, Edgy, Feisty tested on * Contact: JustinDugger * Toshiba Tecra M7 * Intel Core Duo T2500 * 1GB Memory * 80 GB harddrive * 14.1" WXGA+ 1440 x 900 native resolution * Intel GMA950 (optional NVIDIA Quadro NVS 110M 128MB VRAM) * Intel® PRO/1000 VE Network Connection * Intel® PRO/Wireless Network Connection 3945ABG * 56k Modem * SD, xD, MMC, MemoryStick, MemoryStickPro slot * Optional Bluetooth * Wacom digitizer * Convertable from laptop to tablet mode * Fingerprint reader * Windows XP Tablet Edition 2005 * WLAN killswitch on front == Hardware details == || || in Dapper || in Edgy || in Feisty || in Hardy (Current LTS) || in Intrepid (Current stable) || || Installation works?

After installing `wacom-tools`, the pointer follows the pen, and tapping works as a click (and double tapping triggers double click) but the pen buttons are usually messed up. Running `xsetwacom set stylus button2 3` will fix some functionality for me, as does the dubious `xsetwacom set stylus button1 1`. Cursor overlay switches 789UIOJKL keys into Home Up PgUp Left Right etc. mode. ---- CategoryLaptop
