Ubuntu vs Fedora different keyboard behaviour
I have a HP Spectre x360 Laptop (2015 version).
On fedora when I put the laptop in tablet mode the keyboard stays turned on.
On ubuntu when I put the laptop in tablet mode the keyboard turns off (same behaviour as Windows).
Is there anyway I can get Ubuntu to behave like Fedora, the reason is I would like to use the laptop as a keyboard (folded/'tablet mode') when connected to an external monitor. I am thinking there may be some GRUB settings or something?

Fedora 27 does not do this anymore(are you using 25 perhaps?) And I would assume this is a hardware issue: you probably need to disable the HID sensor. Your answer might be easier to get asking it on U&L: knowing how fedora does/did this might be a way to get it to work on Ubuntu.

I tried Fedora 25 and CentOS 7 which had the keyboard on behaviour.
