for what it's worth, I get this error as well, since I don't have a
toshiba laptop, but it doesn't affect the rest of the system. I have
a working battery monitor, the fan doesn't run all the time, and so on.
(Sidenote: What I'd like to see is a "nice easy way" to get FC1 to work
with all my ACPI-based things, such as the suspend/hibernate functionality
and the volume up/down/mute buttons, as well as CPUFreq which doesn't seem
to work on my notebook).
I don't really think the problem you've got has anything to do with ACPI.
I suspect something else is amiss, that sounds to me like it's an XFree86
config problem (i'm no expert tho).
To fix the toshiba module problem, you might be able to change
/etc/rc.sysinit to not load the toshiba module. Where it says
"# Initialiaze ACPI bits" in that file, change it to look like this:
===== snip here =====
# Initialiaze ACPI bits
if [ -d /proc/acpi ]; then
for module in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/acpi/* ; do
if ! strstr "$module" toshiba ; then
insmod $module
fi
done
fi
===== snip here =====
Note that I have *NOT* tested this, because well, i'm too lazy/busy to
reboot my laptop. It should work, but I'm not guaranteeing it ;)
