Having not used Ubuntu in over 5 years, my curiosity got the better of me. I've dual booted Ubuntu 14.04 alongside Windows 8.1 on my Surface Pro. Only just installing it yesterday, being the noob that I am, it took me awhile to get it looking the way I wanted.
While still trying to edit things around today, under the terminal I tried to press "~" on the onboard keyboard for file directory stuff. That's when the onboard keyboard decided not to work anymore. The keyboard itself pops up and you can see the keys being pressed but it doesn't actually type anything.
I've tried googling my issue but it seems that no one else is suffering the exact same problem. I have no problems with using a mouse (or using the touch screen), it's just the onboard keyboard that's giving me issues...
So my question is, does anyone have a solution for my problem? I'd like to keep using Ubuntu but not being able to type whatsoever makes the OS almost useless.
EDIT: Tested an USB wireless keyboard on my brother's system (exactly the same as mine) and it works not a problem but on mine, nothing is outputted.
EDIT EDIT: Typing works perfectly under guest but not my account...
