The keyboard that this machine comes works fine under grub and windows but not linux. The keyboard is a Lenovo Thinkpad Helix Ultrabook Pro which also has a touchpad, extra battery, usb port etc. The touchpad, battery, ports are all detected, but the keyboard doesn't work. A usb and bluetooth keyboard work fine. I currently have kernel 4.0.0- 040000- generic. It has been reported in a number of other forums, e.g. https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ xorg/+bug/ 1437051 https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Linux-Discussion/ThinkPad-Helix-keyboard-not-detected-in-Linux/td-p/2051477 which all contain useful information and log files. I'm currently running on a fresh install of Ubuntu 15.04 with their "upstream kernel", but the problem exists in previous Ubuntu and kernel versions.
