** Description changed:

  I installed  Ubuntu on a MicroSD card in a Microsoft Surface Pro in
  order to arrive at a dual boot installation. I followed these great
- instructions: https://vitobotta.com/2018/01/11/ubuntu-full-disk-
- encryption-manual-partitioning-uefi/ to make sure key partitions were
- full disk encrypted.
+ instructions to make sure key partitions were full disk encrypted.
  
  I expected to be able to enter my disk (de)encryption password at boot
  in order to continue booting into Ubuntu and Gnome.
  
  Unfortunately, I could not type from the Surface Pro typecover to enter
  the disk decryption password.
  
  As a workaround, I plug in a USB keyboard - which allows me to enter the
  password and boot normally into Ubuntu. After entering the password, I
  can remove the USB keyboard and load the OS where typing from the
  Surface Pro typecover works fine (on it now).
  
  If I enter Grub menu/prompt before this decryption prompt, the typecover
  works fine...but seems to stop working after the Grub menu.
