Hello Lin,
Thank you very much for your answer!
I tried to follow your instructions:
-The fn + F7 doesn't change anything in the mousepad, but renders the
keyboard dull, i.e. I can't write anything until rebooting after I press
that combination.
-If I press fn + F7 on boot, the same thing happens when the computer is
opened.
-I tried to access the BIOS on ubuntu (with my limited knowledge, I thought
it must be different from windows, still don't know if it's true or nay),
and failed.
-Choose the advanced settings whilst the opening computer asks me to choose
between ubuntu or windows, and found nothing interesting there.
So all in all, I failed to enable it. Also, a couple of days ago I realized
my PC camera also isn't working :) Don't know how can I pass these
obstacles.
Again, thank you for your time!
Best wishes
Murat
