Toshiba NB 200

It's 2009, I've acquired a brand new TOSHIBA NB 200 NetBook.
The first thing i did : install Ubuntu 04.09.
I had hard time to setup the wifi, but finally, i succeded. I have wireless internet now with my netbook! My wireless card is an Atheros 9285.

Just followed the procedure described in the page : http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download
And it worked like a charm.
1. Dowload
2. Compilation
3. Installation
4. Reboot
5. Connexion via ubuntu GUI

Update, it's 2016, now, I have restarted my netbook which now uses Ubuntu 14.04. Problem, the sound does not work.
This is how I fixed it using the advice from this forum page :

sudo apt-get install alsa-base
sudo apt-get install pulseaudio


sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf
then add at the end of the file:
options snd-hda-intel model=auto

Can you provide more specific, maybe step-by-step instructions on getting the wifi card in your Toshiba NB200 working.

Thanks,

To install rustup , follow the next steps. 4. Clone the rustup git repository :  git clone git@github.com:rust-lang/rustup.git --depth=1 5. Compile and run rustup: cd rustup cargo run --release 6.

Installing Ubuntu 16.04 on an Alienware Aurora R5

Installing Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on an Alienware Aurora R5 with NVIDIA GPU support (Dual boot Windows) I have compiled these instructions from my succesful installation on Nov 25.

However, please, make sure to take care about the GPU-related  steps below. Re-installing Windows 10 with BIOS Secure Boot to OFF First, check that have only one disk installed in your machine. I have found that having one disk only makes it easier to re-install Windows. Secondly, an important step is to create two USB Recovery disks. Use two USB memory sticks bigger than 16 GB supporting the USB 3.0 standard (file copy will be much faster). Use the first one to create a recovery disk for Windows 10, as a backup if the installati
