Note: I am using a Quantal kernel because (for whatever reason) the kernel for Maya doesn't properly support Toshiba fan control. Also have since removed GRUB Customizer, because it didn't really work the way I expected it to.

You have enabled the removed repository, but their server is down. See here: http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.p ... 43#p656543. You have the option to either disable it, or configure manually to use their mirror server (which for now is still up).

Hi, you have to disable the removed respository.

I have a question for you, because I use the same Laptop (Toshiba a505 s6005), I see you have using the Version 13 (maya), I have installed it but I have problems with the video card, i got laggy graphics, the mouse moves very sticky and the transition between windows is slow, it get worst if use compiz.

I have tried very Distros in various versions (Ubuntu 12.04, 12.10, Fedora, Fuduntu, Arch) and others with the same result. Actually the only one running smoth is the Ubuntu 11.10, i'm stuck on it.

My question is: Do you have this problem?, in that case, How do you solve it?.

Thank you so much.

I switched from compiz to another compositor named XCompMGR. See this thread to find out how to set it up.

You should look into upgrading the display driver. While it may not be necessarily easy, it is possible. Pity Toshiba doesn't actively support Linux. In fact, they seem rather hostile toward it.
