Quick note: Both myself and Jerome have had great luck with our Toshibas.

Greetings,
I was wondering if any of the members of the Laptop Testing Team were
having essentially no luck with their Toshiba laptops like I am. I'm
going to provide a list of problems from my Tecra A4's wiki page, please
chime in if you're experiencing any of them. I'm not sure if the Tecra
A4 is just especially bad in terms of Linux support or if many similar
models are as well.

* Critical: Ethernet is now once again broken. This is a
show-stopper for many people.
(https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/39862)
* Critical: Wireless with the ipw2200 driver is restarting due to
firmware error, making wireless connectivity impossible.
(https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/27778)
* Major: USB Storage devices do not mount.
(https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/47883)
* Moderate: None of the function keys work.

This affects me. Seems to be a BIOS issue.
* Minor: Card reader isn't likely to work, no Linux driver
available.

Please ask on those bugs how you can move things forward. Offering to
help debug with mjg59 goes quite far (don't just bug him to fix it).
Word it like: "How can I help you useful information for bug X"
