Hum forget it. My previous comment is a mistake, I mixed bugs and thought it was just about the screen brightness hotkeys.
The only things true there is that I now run ArchLinux with a 3.12.4-1-ARCH kernel, have BIOS 2.50 and still have the "can't set backlight brightness" issue. For the "other hotkeys", I don't remember having noticed any issue for long (possibly the BIOS upgrade fixed it, possibly upgrading from Precise did it, possibly changing for Arch ?), so as far as I'm concerned, I'm not concerned anymore ;-) -- 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/971734 Title: [Toshiba L735-101] hotkeys don't work before system has been suspended in Precise. Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Hi, My Toshiba L735-101 has [Fn]}[some_key] hotkeys for a number of features, i.e.: - Sound volume +/- / Mute - Suspend to RAM, hibernate - Backlight brightness +/- - Wi-Fi On-Off - Numlock - Touchpad on/off - Etc... I've noticed something quite weird : Right after bootup, most of these hotkeys don't work at all - except for sound volume and NumLock that work. But once after I have suspended to RAM then resumed the system, all hotkeys work OK. This is perfectly reproductible, everytime. (I have another issue : the screen brightess keys to display a brightness popup with a "level bar" that reacts, but besides this it has no effect on the actual screen brightness, but I will file a separate bug report for this one.)
