@alphablue52: well, this seems to be a thing with the new kernels .. unless we get together and give toshiba pressure for linux support then everytime linus and friends make changes like with .23 then we will be sitting with the same problem ... ie. no sound etc... what i meant with the tohiba/nvidia thing is that nvidia doesnt give out drivers for chips like 7600 go (for windows) , they say its up to toshiba to make sure their drivers work, so to be uptodate you have to run hacked drivers.
@everyone: come on , go to toshiba.com and .co.uk to complain (email & forums & support pages) and at least threaten them with loss of revenue.. this is something _ALL_ of us should do by default, if enough of us bitch then they will patch the kernel and no more of this dsdt patching/recompiling/timewasting.. at the very least , if they take several hundred dollars from us then they should make sure we can use the bloody thing... its time we stop thinking short term , from destro to destro version , and start looking for a long term solution. i'm sure we all have better things to do with our time than have toshiba waste it for us. otherwise , does anyone want to take up a 24/7 support contract with Canonical maybe they will do something if you that. @250usd and @900usd it isnt cheap...
