12.3 issues on Toshiba P750D

I was running 12.2 x64 on my Toshiba P750D (AMD A8-3520M APU with Radeon HD Graphics) without problems, but then installed a new SSD and 12.3 x64. Suspend didn’t work at all at first, but installing fglrx drivers got it to work most of the time (still hangs occasionally on resume). But I’ve still got two major problems:

  1. After resume from suspend, the wifi tries to connect to the same connection it was using before, even if that access point is no longer in range. Manually selecting the correct access point works most of the time, but seems to hang after a while on the new access point.
  2. The screen brightness control keys show brightness up/down (monitor display with brightness ranging from 0 to 100 pops up and bar shows changes), but there’s no actual change to the brightness unless I log out and log back on.

Anyone have any suggestions on these issues? Everything was working correctly on 12.2.

That is what I would expect. I see the same in my laptop.

Yes, I thought this was an error in 12.3, not related to the particular laptop. It looks like 12.2 is a much more stable build for laptops, I’ll revert to that this weekend.

Hold on, I have the same behaviour in every version, my laptop is
currently on 11.4
