I was pretty happy with Ubuntu's 4.8 kernel too since the keyboard continued working, however unfortunately it now has stopped again at 4.8.0-17-generic and for some reason it still doesn't work when booting to 4.8.0-11-generic with which I'd assume I have typed with the internal keyboard as that was the previous kernel installed.
This just as a comment, not related to this bug now about backporting and also I can't file a new bug since I don't know why exactly it stopped working again. The core problem is probably related to the possibility of disabling the keyboard when using the laptop as a tablet. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1609752 Title: Internal keyboard does not work on Acer Chromebook R11 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I'm unable to figure out why, but I need to currently use external keyboard when using the installed Ubuntu on my Chromebook R11 (CYAN).
