Hi, I had already tried to see if there were any toshiba modules available to cure the problem before I posted to the forum. The specific module that you referenced in Debian is called Tosh-utils in Elive. However, with it installed there is no difference to the fan operation, they still don't come on. I have done some reading about this problem and have found that this problem is becby ndegekubwa - [OLD] - Installed Mode
Hi, I have found that when I run elive topaz or the development versions leading to topaz that the laptop fan never comes on to cool the machine. The temperature display for the cpu shows 73 degrees. I run two other versions of linux on this laptop, one debian based and another rpm based. The other debian based distro has the same problem as elive, it runs too hot because it doesn't turnby ndegekubwa - [OLD] - Installed Mode
Hi, I will try to answer your questions. What is slamr? Please look in the fourth post in this thread, by leanmoha. It is purported to be the command that will run fine tuning. I ran it in terminal as root. I am not running the command before installation using a live cd, I ran it in the installed operating system booting from hard drive. I ran it as root in terminal.

Hi, I found that the drop down list with the box to check for "window tapping" only appears when iceweasel is actually open on the desktop. If it isn't open, the item doesn't appear in the drop down list. slamr command still doesn't work, so I can't fine tune the installation from either the command line or from the gui. Neither works.

Hi, I found out how to get the tapping at the top of the window to work. Left click on the desktop, and when the dropdown list opens up, look for the "Windows" line. On the list that opens to the right, find "Tapping the top of the window - Iceweasel" Check the box on that line, and the tapping feature will work.

Hi, I have been trying to catch Thanatermesis on chat for some time without success. Is it possible for him to respond to this issue in this forum?by ndegekubwa - Hardware, Wifi's and Drivers
Hi, thanks for the info. I went to try the command line but after two days of trying to get the fine tuning program to come up in graphical mode, it finally took. So I didn't need to use the bash command. The bad news is that the applications still won't collapse when I tap on the window top bar, after fine tuning. Anyone have any ideas?by ndegekubwa - [OLD] - Installed Mode
Hi, I followed your directions in the last post, but that didn't fix the problem. It would place a firefox icon over top of the icons that were already in the ibar at the bottom of my screen. That icon had no functions associated with it, as tapping it wouldn't cause firefox to open if I minimized it. What would happen is that the icon in the original ibar that lay underneath the suby ndegekubwa - [OLD] - Installed Mode
Hi, I decided to install the current stable Topaz version, doing a fresh install instead of upgrading the development version that I had been running. The tapping feature worked in live mode, but it doesn't work on the fresh install. I have been prompted to do the fine tuning via a graphics box, so I input my admin password, and click. The dialogue box goes away, but then nothing happby ndegekubwa - [OLD] - Installed Mode
Hi, On earlier versions of Elive, when I tapped three times on the top bar of a browser window or other application window, the bar would remain but the display window would collapse into the top bar. The only thing remaining on the desktop would be the bar. When I tapped on that bar three times more, the window would display again. In my present Elive version, this function isn't workby ndegekubwa - [OLD] - Installed Mode
Hi, I did something to my windows the other day and accidentally got rid of the little icon that pops up on the desktop when one minimizes a browser window. Now when I minimize a browser, it goes into hiding and no icon appears. How does one get the icon on the desktop back?by ndegekubwa - [OLD] - Installed Mode
Hi, I have been working on this problem for some time and believe that I figured out how to get the driver to install. I am reading wireless networks with the wireless transceiver, but I can't get the network manager to recognize the driver so that I can use it to configure the network. I have to do everything by command line. If someone could point me to how to configure how to whicby ndegekubwa - Hardware, Wifi's and Drivers
Not much action on my post above. I wonder if someone knows which packages must be installed to compile the driver on this machine? Is this possible in Elive, or do programmers have to write a package to allow this driver to work?by ndegekubwa - Hardware, Wifi's and Drivers
Hi, I am using Elive development version 1.9.51 on my laptop. It uses a Realtek rtl8192se wlan card, and I was able to obtain the Linux driver from realtek.

However the wlan isn't configuring and I can't figure out how to get it working. I checked the instby ndegekubwa - Hardware, Wifi's and Drivers
Hi, the place where I work uses an odd wireless format, 802.1x WEP. Is it possible to get something on Elive that will allow me to access this wireless net?

Hi, I've double checked the email address, it is my email address and it is a valid address. I am not sure why it isn't going through. Maybe you can just put some *** in place of some of the letters in the offending word and do the post here on the forum. That way I hopefully will be able to figure out what you are saying and the computer won't ding you for using the offendingby ndegekubwa - Applications

Hi, I am glad that the browsers work correctly on elive for you, however they don't for me. That is certainly the result that I would like to achieve. I have received the proxy settings from the administrator, and as I stated above, they work in my other linux distro but not in elive using the same settings. Perhaps this is a clue that the problem lies elsewhere.by ndegekubwa - [OLD] - Installed Mode

Hi, I never could get the wireless to work in Elive Stable, either with ndiswrapper or with B43-fwcutter or bcm43xx-fwcutter.
