Title:
[Acer ICONIA W700]grub 2 key problem. no timeout on live-usb with dd
(UEFI).
Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
There are four buttons on ICONIA W700.
1. orientation lock
2. win-key
3. power off
4. volume up/down
If one creates bootable usb-flash with dd, there is no timeout on boot screen. The solution is to use Unetbootin and put timeout manually. I think that it's wrong and this can be difficult for many users.
Also, all of the keys on this device (except power off) are sending down signal in the selection menu. So, there is no way to start ubuntu live-usb without keyboard. I know, that this is device-related, but it can be fixed too, and it will be great if one can start ubuntu install without keyboard or editing grub.cfg.
