Before this operation, I was running Kubuntu 12.10 with additional driver for Nvidia GT425M. Brightness changing worked well all the time.

I have a Toshiba l755 laptop, and I installed 12.04 64bit on it. The default brightness of the laptop is set to maximum value, and I can't change it.

Hello and welcome to my third issue posting. I am running ubuntu 12.04 on a compaq cq62 laptop and the brightness keys do not work using fn+f2 and f3.

I looked around and found :
Type in terminal:
