I have a MacBook Pro with trackpad that was very sensitive with my Ubuntu Cinnamon 16.04. I tried some customization found here and there on the net, and finaly edit the xorg.conf file. But after reboot, my keyboard and my mouse are not responding. The time on my screen is updated every minute, so i think the system is not freezed.

My idea was to launch a terminal to reset the xorg.conf file. I tried CTRL+ALT+T CTRL+ALT+Fn 1...7 but this is not working, so i guess my keyboard is not working.

I tried a usb mouse, and the cursor is not moving...

I am using Refind, and I was not able to start a way to start ubuntu in mimimal model, where i would be able to launch some command lines.

Edit : I was able to enter to Grub boot menu after holding the ESC. button. I can enter In Advanced Option for Ubuntu. But if i select this, nothing happens, my screen stays grey. Edit 2: After getting to the avdanced menu, if i hit esc, i go back to the menu one. Selecting advanced option again, I can access the recovery mode. In recovery mode, i selected root There I was not able to execute

#sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

xserver-xorg is not installed

Nor

#sudo X -configure

Could not create lock file in /tmp/.tx0-lock

I tried

#sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf

but it is telling me that the system is read only

EDIT 3:

#cat /etc/fstab
    # : was on /dev/sda4 during installation
UUID=fff03159-4eda-49b6-b93d-6be3eb655560e /       ext4     errors=ermount-ro 
0       1
# /boot/efi was on /dev/sda1 during installation
UUID=67E3-17ED /boot/efi     vfat   umask=0077    0   1

result of cat /etc/fstab
