Configuration
Kernel
The kernel configuration shown below lists only hardware relevant options, some of them are shown as disabled on purpose.
It should come in handy as a reference(or as a quick reminder) when you configure the kernel.
| Linux Kernel Configuration: v2.6.16-suspend2-r8 |

(1) This laptop has a Phoenix BIOS, which according to the information on this site means that it was manufactured in Taiwan, therefore this laptop is not a true Toshiba laptop.
Bottom line: you cannot use the utilities.
(2) The PCI-ID for the ATI SATA Controller is 0x4379. If you take a look at the enabled driver source code(drivers/scsi/sata_sil.c), you'll see it defined in a data structure.

Known Issues
Hard drive randomly locks up for 30 seconds or more. Messages in the logfile point to the sata_sil driver.
