I have been able to set the fan speed and transreflective mode using toshset after patching and building the toshiba_acpi module for the current maverick kernel (2.6.35-22-generic). The acpitool program is also able to set the fan and lcd brightness levels. So the patch seems to enable toshset without affecting the other acpi functionality.

toshiba_acpi patch used: http://schwieters.org/toshset/toshiba_acpi-current.patch

After building the tosbiba_acpi.ko module I just copied it over to the current kernel module lib directory. I'll have to see if there is an official method for substituting a single modified module to a existing kernel build.

Reference System: Toshiba R600, 64bit Maverick Meerkat with patched toshiba_acpi, no 3g modem.
