For the time being I am using the following workaround: 1. Created two scripts to increase and decrease the brightness (see attachments). 2. I put them in a folder under home and made them executable. 3. Added the following line before the exit line in /etc/rc.local
chmod 646 /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness 4. Created custom keyboard shortcuts associated with these scripts. I assigned Alt + ↑ and Alt + ↓. Now I have two sets of brightness controls, one of which, the normal ones (Fn + F6/F7), work until sleep. The others work before and after sleep. ** Attachment added: "Script to increase brightness" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1069144/+attachment/3896675/+files/inc_br.sh -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1069144 Title: [Toshiba Satellite R830-1H3] brightness control works until sleep To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1069144/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
