Solution in post 294 fixed the problem on our (many) Lenovo G40-30
laptops. Everything back to normal. Right now, I am installing another
distro (Peppermint 8) until Ubuntu 17.10 iso is fixed.
Million thanks to those who fixed the issue without the need for any
hardware repair or replacement.

There is no iso for a lot of Lenovo models. For instance, for Lenovo
G40-30, there is only an .exe file, that is only compatible with Windows
8.

@anthonywong Thank you for your reply. Please allow me to say that after
contacting Lenovo to request support and notify them about the current
problem, they clearly stated that they are unaware of the issue and that
absolutely no report has been made to Lenovo. This is what worries me.
They refuse
Contacting the vendor and sending computers in, means paying a lot of
money for something that the end-users haven't caused on their hardware.
What is more, Lenovo clearly states that Linux is unsupported so, their
options are limited in terms of providing support. That is why they have
advised me
It happened again right now, on another G40-30 Lenovo laptop, running
Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04, both in legacy mode. As soon as we inserted
an Ubuntu 17.10 live USB, the boot setup had the USB listed twice. One
in legacy and another as EFI (I repeat, the OSs on that laptop are
installed in legac
@Kai-Heng Feng: Lenovo in Greece has been notified about the problem and
they have said that the factory will be notified. After telling them
that the Lenovo forums are full of posts referring to the issue, they
said that they did not know anything about it, as Lenovo Forums are not
part of the off
The problem occurs both in Legacy and in UEFI mode, as I can see. My
dual boot setup is in legacy mode.

Update: I contacted Lenovo Greece today, and they said they they had
never heard of the problem, despite the posts in Lenovo's forums (some
of which date back to 2016), and they suggested that in such cases, a
change of motherboard may be the only solution to fix the issue. So, the

I think Lenovo does not support Linux as an OS, therefore, they will
claim that it is not their fault. On Lenovo forums, similar issues with
similar BIOS symptoms have been reported since 2016, without any
support. On the other hand, I do not see how Ubuntu devs can actually

Just found a bios update, but it fails to install. I am trying to run

Actually, this MUST be a Ubuntu / Linux bug, as the current Ubuntu 17.10
rendered our Lenovo laptops useless in the long run, without any
documentation or warning that the installation would affect the BIOS.
This is a very serious issue, both legally and ethically and I think
that we should demand
The problem also affects Lenovo G40-30. I have just installed Ubuntu
17.10 in legacy mode (dual boot with Windows 10) and the boot from USB

hard drives and reinstall an OS. There was no reference in the

Sorry, I do not understand how to upgrade the kernel in order to test

Do you mean I should run

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ?
The page that you quoted is not very clear to me and I cannot figure out
how to follow the procedure.

Just a note, to mention that I have the same laptop, and everything
worked fine, until I decided to install ubuntu 13.10 (or its mint
derivative).
By installing and using 3.2.0-030200 kernel, the keyboard works fine.
I hope this will help developers see to the problem whenever possible.
