update to my entry #47: installed ubuntu 18.04 daily build from Dec 11, 2017 on the Lenovo IdeaPad/Yoga 2 13 with touch screen. For one day everything went fine except one single appearance of the on screen keyboard (osk). On the second day the osk got crazy, appearing that frequently that working with the mouse or touch screen was practically impossible. But the cursor didn't jump (to lower left corner) as it did with 17.04 and 17.10. The osk sometimes flickered really fast giving the impression of being turned on/off at least 10x/second - without me touching anything on the laptop! Then I applied the fix provided by https://askubuntu.com/users/750621/keringar (Thank you!!) and now I can use the laptop again. Testing continues....
