drivers brick accelerometer on a Yoga 2 11" (non-pro, with Intel i3) #24

After installing these drivers, my accelerometer no longer works at all, neither on Linux (this is using Ubuntu 14.04 with the stock 3.13 Kernel) nor on Windows. How can I get it working again?

Probably it is in some unusual mode, but I have no idea how to recover except to power off and reboot. I've never seen this behaviour.

The problem is, the accelerometer remains bricked after powering off and rebooting. Do you know how to change its mode so that it can work again? Or is it going to be like this permanently?

I also have Yoga 2 11 with Ubuntu 14.10 (3.16) and accelerometer doesn't work.

I don't have a windows to test. But can I do something to help?

If your accelerometer doesn't work at all, even without loading up any of this stuff, then it is very likely that it needs a quirk.
