I bought This Toshiba from Best Buy last week. It was pre loaded with Windoze 8.1. I resized the partition, and installed Ubuntu 14.04. I upgraded to 14.10. I never noticed any problems with 14.04, only with 14.10, but that does not mean much because I upgraded almost right away.
I do not work from the Windoze much, but I never noticed it shutting down. I only work from the Windoze side when I have to work on my taxes. When I am in 14.10, just before it shuts down, everything freezes. That is when I know it is going to restart. It usually happens at least once an hour. I have never done anything like what you are asking me to do, but I would try. However, I really do not understand what to do from the directions given. What do I download, and how do I install or run it? On 02/04/2015 03:19 PM, Joseph Salisbury wrote: > Did this issue start happening after an update/upgrade?
