Bug Description
A fresh install of Ubuntu Gnome 16.04 on an Asus ZenBook UX501VW hangs during boot, approximately 80% to 90% of the time... occasionally it manages to complete the startup for no discernible reason, at which point the fan will run at full speed nonstop (very loud) until the machine is powered down. Due to the information from <https:/
The hang occurs shortly after providing the disk decryption key (I opted for full-disk encryption during installation). The issue occurs frequently when booting Ubuntu Gnome from a flash drive using "try before installation" mode, however, so I'm confident that it's not actually encryption related.
I am *not* using any proprietary drivers (no nvidia, etc.).
