Keyboard not Detected on Lenovo x120e #726

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Boot Android 4.0 RC1 on Lenovo x120e

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would expect to be able to type on the keyboard, but I have to use the 
on-screen keyboard. There is no switch to use the hardware keyboard, though 
oddly enough the brightness and sound function keys work fine, and "Esc" goes 
back.

The Lenovo x120e is an AMD e-350 based computer. I was surprised at just how 
well this worked with the AMD Brazos build of the RC. Wireless, Webcam, 
Microphone, Sound, Bluetooth, touchpad, brightness and sound functions, all 
work perfectly. Hardware graphics acceleration is good, but a bit flickery 
(known problem), but of all things... the keyboard isn't detected. The keyboard 
worked fine on my friend's computer, (using the eeePC build) but mine just 
doesn't show up.

I solve this problem on U270 by deleting file 
system/usr/keylayout/AT_Translated_Set_2_keyboard.kl

I tested the above comment (rm 
/system/usr/keylayout/AT_Translated_Set_2_keyboard.kl) and it appears to work.

I'm on Android 4.0 RC2 for AMD Brazos on Lenovo x120e.

After installing, I booted into a live usb of Kubuntu, mounted Android into 
/media, and using a terminal I rm'ed the file.

Next time I booted into Android, keyboard works.  so far the buttons that i've 
tested are Vol Up, Vol Down, Sleep, Power, Esc, Tab, Caps Lock, and the windows 
key. They all seem to work as expected.  The only interesting thing is that the 
Fn key toggles sleep and wake.

Deleting file system/usr/keylayout/AT_Translated_Set_2_keyboard.kl and reboot 
the VM also worked for me. I'm now able to use the full laptop keyboard and 
type everything.
