Installed Mandriva One 2008 on a Toshiba Satellite P205-S6287. All hardware has been recognized, which is great, compared to other distros I have tried. However, after installing and using VirtualBox sometimes the system grinds to a halt. I found that the bottleneck is the RAM. It gets maxed out.
I have 2GB RAM installed, but free only reports 905800 MB.
I'm a relative newbie. My guess is that the problem lies here...
In Mandriva Linux Control Center, under Hardware, under 'Unknown.Others' it has two entries:
1) Identification
Vendor: ?TOSHIBA
Description: ?TOSHIBA
Connection
Bus: ?DMI
Vendor ID: ?0x0000
Device ID: ?0x0000
Sub vendor ID: ?0x0000
Sub device ID: ?0x0000
Misc
Module: ?Module:toshiba
---------------------------
2) Identification
Vendor: ?TOSHIBA
Description: ?TOSHIBA
Connection
Bus: ?DMI
Vendor ID: ?0x0000
Device ID: ?0x0000
Sub vendor ID: ?0x0000
Sub device ID: ?0x0000
Misc
Module: ?Pkg:toshutils
Thanks for any help.
