Hello Christopher,
Just to clear what you require here. I'm a little confused. I've been thru the Mainline builds and established where I'm having a problem (v4.4...) and not having it (4.3.6-040306-generic).

So the next step next is to run 'git clone...', 'git bisect...' and start compiling kernels? Um, I'll give it a go, but I've not done this before.

I started looking at 'https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection', followed (with changes) some of the links and ended up at 'https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/xenial/+source/linux' and followed on into some of the Releases (eg. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/4.4.0-1.15/+build/8880827). I was (initially) under the impression, you wanted me to test these release kernels to establish where my problem started. However installing packages always failed with dependency errors (for example again with 4.4.0-1.15 'linux-headers-4.4.0-1-generic depends on linux-headers-4.4.0-1'). So I guess this isn't what you need and its the git / compile actions.

Could you please confirm?
Regards
