[Bashar <1338555@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

OK. I started all over on this same laptop with a fresh install of 14.04.2
which I also updated. Then from the mainline kernel list I downloaded the
three relevant files inside v3.13-trusty. After reboot the keyboard wasn't
responding. Then back to v4.0-rc2-vivid/ on which the keyboard was fine.
Going halfway between the two back and forth, the 'last bad commit' as you
called it was v3.17-rc5-utopic/ and right above it in the list
v3.17-rc6-utopic/ which was the first good one where my keyboard functioned
properly. Just to confirm my results I tested v3.17-rc4-utopic/ where the
keyboard also didn't respond. Moreover v3.17-rc4-utopic/ right above the
first good commit was checked and the keyboard was fine.
There are other details in the wiki about using github but I'm afraid they
weren't very clear to me.

Hope that was helpful.
