Many "toshiba" laptops are not supported by the "toshiba" features in
the Linux kernel. The omnibook module may help. For my Satellite, I
needed the omnibook module to get the built-in bluetooth working.
The Debian packages work with Ubuntu 8.04

This is the page I made about my Toshiba configuration:

I only use omnibook for the bluetooth module. The kernel correctly looks
after everything else on my notebook, except for some LCD backlight
niggles. So I don't know if you will find the omnibook module much use
in your case.
