I succesfully installed my dualboot Ubuntu (the main OS is W10) today after updating my bios on my laptop. My laptop is a Lenovo Yoga 720-15IKB.

I discovered that my touchpad isn't working and neither is my bluetooth mouse (Microsoft Designer). I was running Kernel 4.10. The system could find my mouse at first, try to connect to it and then give an error that it failed to set the connection up.

I decided to give a newer kernel a try and upgraded my kernel to 4.13 and I'm running that succesfully now. The touchpad is still not working and neither is the bluetooth mouse.

At least my touch screen is working properly, but I'd really like to have the touchpad and bluetooth working as well as I can't be arsed carrying a wired mouse with me everywhere...

I tried running inxi and here's the pastebin from that: https://pastebin.com/DWDASqnQ

Any tips on what I should try to fix it?

Edit: The Kernel found in here did not work.

I also managed to install Ubuntu on the yoga 720 and wrote a thorough install guide.

To get the touchpad running you have to install a newer kernel, at least the kernel 4.14-rc5 (4.14 will be released in November 2017).

I installed the latest kernel with this script and got the touchpad running, but then at first the networking will be broken due to a bug in the apparmor settings, you can fix this by 

sudo apt install apparmour-utils
sudo aa-complain /etc/apparmor.d/sbin.dhclient
