Hi all, haven't been on the list for a while so may be bounced off!  I
have a tosh 1110 satellite and everything works with most distros
mentioned in previous threads.  Mine was a Celeron 2Ghz with 64 ATI
Graphics.  There are some differences between toshiba laptops so check
out the web.  The 1110 work beautifully but ended up being a tad too
slow.
