camden lindsay, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 935778 Various Toshiba laptops - brightness controls work on first boot, but do nothing after suspend/resume to RAM. ** Tags added: needs-full-computer-model needs-kernel-logs needs- suspend-logs needs-upstream-testing ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/606547 Title: toshiba_acpi no control of display backlight after suspend to ram Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hello- toshiba portege r705 After boot, display backlight control works fine. After suspend to ram (any number of times), backlight control does not work After suspend to ram, wake, suspend to disk, wake backlight control returns to working state. When control is not working, on screen display does work -- indicating backlight changing brightness (even though its not) /proc/acpi/toshiba/lcd changes with button pushes, as expected /sys/devices/platform/toshiba_acpi/backlight/toshiba/actual_brightness changes with button pushes, as expected however-- /sys/devices/platform/toshiba_acpi/backlight/toshiba/brightness never changes from 0, even from a fresh boot. Additionally, the max_brightness=7 and the count starts at 0, but there are only 5 levels when adjusting using control buttons. And even more oddly, when increasing from 0, display_brightness goes like this: 0,2,4,6,7 And when decreasing from 7, it goes like this: 7,5,3,1,0. Although i think this needs to be filed against a different component, (suggestions?) i thought it might be valid here as well.
