Bug Description
16.04 works great on this laptop!
The 16.10 install image boots fine, but once you install it the i915 graphics driver doesn't seem to attach to the device. I tried many things, but I couldn't get it working. Even running the kernel from 16.04 made no difference.
On 16.04 lshw has:
*-display
bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0
width: 64 bits
clock: 33MHz
But if I boot into safe mode on 16.10 the description is missing and X will not start.
