Public bug reported:

The Toshiba Qosmio X75-A7298 is running Ubuntu 14.04 blazingly fast.

The only issue I've noticed, is that the OS doesn't seem to have a
proper mapping to this laptop's function keys.

Specifically, I'm unable to adjust the screen's brightness. Looking a
the keyboard layout, I should be able to dim the screen by holding down
the FN key and then press F2. Alternatively, to make the screen brighter
you'd key  FN-F3.

This is a fantasic laptop, I'd like to help (if I can) to get it fully
functional for Ubuntu 14.04.
