Title:
  only function keys but not the regular keys working, acer aspire U5
  620

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After installing Ubuntu on a new Acer aspire u5 620 I found that the
  wireless keyboard is not working properly (Keyboard: Acer KBRF96211).
  The mouse works just fine and I can use the arrow keys in the grub
  menu (so I am sure the usb plug is working). Moreover, I just
  realized, that while pressing Fn the function keys are working but not
  the regular keys (either with or without pressing the function key)?!
  I have tried it with 14.10 15.04 and 15.10.

  I disabled the touchscreen in the file 10-evdev.conf to make sure it
  does not interfere with the wireless keyboard but nothing changed.
  When I plug in a regular usb-keyboard it is recognized immediately and
  works fine.

  Did anyone experience this before?

  Can you think of a workaround to "establish contact" to the other keys
  on the keyboard? Or do you see a chance to obtain or adapt specific
  drivers? I really like Ubuntu and want to keep using it, any help
  would be appreciated
