I to have Toshiba 1555CDS and thanks to your post got DSL working. I'am new to linux thought DSL would be good place to start. Found in DSL System Stats, dmesg, ACPI disabled because BIOS 1999 or older. Maybe newer Bios available?

G'Day, I had the same problem with my old Toshiba laptop, it would freeze during boot, and I could only get it to work using 'nopcmcia' option.  But then you obviously can't use your pcmcia cards etc.

I finally found the problem. Go into the bios on the laptop and there is a setting in there regarding pcmcia.  I can't recall what the options were, but I changed it to the other one, and then the laptop booted fine with full use of pcmcia slots.

Cheers,
Wittfella
