Welcome to KToshiba
KToshiba is an Fn-key monitoring for Toshiba laptops,
but it does much more than that. It lets you configure the Fn-F# combinations with the supported options
to let you have a complete and fully customizable setup for your specific model, and lets you use those
special multimedia keys found on the front panel (prev, next, play/pause, stop), plus some others found
on newer models.
It also features a Graphical User Interface (UI) highly integrated with KDE
a powerful Desktop Environment, and a configuration module available through the Control Center or
directly from the application panel menu.
The current features of KToshiba can be found here.
All of these couln't be done without the work of Jonathan Buzzard and his Toshiba
utilities.

2006-11-13 - HD Update!
The backup was completed successfuly and one good thing that I noticed is that the Hard Drive
is not as bad as I thought, it does has problems sometimes and it takes about 15 minutes to boot
but sometimes it works as new ;).
The good thing about this is that KToshiba development will continue until the HD is completely
unusable, wich at that point I'll be forced to get new one, but until that happens, "let the coding
continues."
2006-10-31 - Hard Drive Problems!
Last week my Hard Drive started making some strange and ugly noises wich caused it to
malfunction. The good thing is that I was able to access the drive contents and I'm now
in the process of backing up my data (50+ GB).
The bad thing is that KToshiba development will be suspended until I buy a new HD
(wich I hope to get it soon), everyone is encouraged to try out the sources from SVN,
specially the owners of Toshiba laptops with Phoenix BIOS so you can try the new Bluetooth
and WiFi support, and of course to report bugs and/or problems with the code, I'll try to
fix those problems as soon as I can, so don't wait and go get the SVN sources.
