Running Ubuntu 14.04 on a 2008 MBP (3,1). Dual booting with rEFInd.

Pressing CTRL+ALT+F# does nothing at the greeter or once logged in.

I have nomodeset in grub, if I remove it I can't get ubuntu to boot (screen goes black during boot and never recovers).

I am using the nouveau video drivers. I have previously tried mucking around trying to get various nvidia drivers to work but it was never successful.

I am not AMAZING with ubuntu, but I am somewhat capable and learning fast so I'm eager to try and fix this.

I ended up being able to resolve this with the help of xinput and figuring out that the keys were working, I just needed to be holding down the fn key.
