Title:
Can't change screen brightness on Toshiba P855-30D
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
The brightness is locked to the brightest setting (eye-melting-bright).
I upgraded to the latest BIOS to this date : 6.70
Below are my different attempts at setting the brightness using the command
line (GUI don't work either).

/sys/class/backlight/ is populated
/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/max_brightness:100
changing /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness has no effect

/sys/class/backlight/ is empty
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi_osi="
