Same for me on a L455. I can feel the heat coming out of the keyboard.

I know that this is a long shot, but if everything else fails you could try installing 10.10 and see if that works better:

All standard warnings apply: This is in development and might change without warning (and so on and so on).
Best is doing a clean install, not an upgrade.
Updating the BIOS is 'another last attempt' that might be worth considering.

Instead of "acpi_osi=Linux", try adding only "acpi_osi=" instead. I tried this on my L305D and the fan and brightness keys work now. According to a kernel parameter document I found, not specifying an os disables the _osi method, which apparently solved my problem.
I hope this helps someone else!
I'm using a Toshiba Satellite L305D with Ubuntu 10.04
Also, it has the Insyde H2O BIOS
