fixed. 1. patch toshiba_acpi.c and replace toshiba_acpi.ko. (reload the module)
references to the patch and all you need is here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1550219&highlight=acpi Make sure the patch actually succeeds. I found this post also helpful http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=986075 2. Do this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=9785837&postcount=10 with a slight modification: run "acpi_listen" and click on the fn+brightness up/down and record the values you get. Now replace "event=hkey VALZ 00000001 00000140" with whatever you got and reboot. (you have two instances, replace both) brightness keys should work after suspend and hibernation now. tested on mint 11 and a portege r835. sorry if it's not the best write-up or if it lacks some clarity. I've been working on this for the last 2 hours and let's just say it's getting late over here. side note: toshset was installed, but it was useless because the kernel module was not patched?! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/857678 Title: ACPI: Toshiba screen brightness fails to function after waking from standby To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi/+bug/857678/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
