Domenic,
even if Toshiba does not officially support Linux, they provide
some info at http://www.tce.co.jp/linux There you'll find also info on a
mailing list specific on Linux-on-Toshiba issues and that is read by a lot
of Toshiba users and hackers...
Good luck,
matteo
PS I am running Debian potato on a Satellite 110CS. I didn't check the
specs of the 1800, but if it turns out that I can be of any help, feel
free to email me.
