I have no problems with using a mouse (or using the touch screen), it's just the onboard keyboard that's giving me issues. I've tried googling my issue but it seems that no one else is suffering the exact same problem. The keyboard itself pops up and you can see the keys being pressed but it doesn't actually type anything. That's when the onboard keyboard decided not to work anymore.

While still trying to edit things around today, under the terminal I tried to press "~" on the onboard keyboard for file directory stuff. Only just installing it yesterday, being the noob that I am, it took me awhile to get it looking the way I wanted. I've dual booted Ubuntu 14.04 alongside Windows 8.1 on my Surface Pro. Having not used Ubuntu in over 5 years, my curiosity got the better of me.
