Title:
  [Toshiba Satellite P70-A] Brightness Hotkey Doesn't Work

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I followed the steps at
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting and found that the
  brightness keys are only detected with acpi_listen, which apparently
  means "this is a bug in the kernel (ubuntu-bug linux) for not
  translating the ACPI event to an input event"

  Brightness down and up create the following output with acpi_listen,
  respectively:

  button/battery BAT 00000080 00000000 K
  button/sleep SBTN 00000080 00000000 K
