>"Christopher Penalver, I've now tested the 4.8-rc5. Unsurprisingly the result is the same than for 4.8-rc4. Do you think that testing each new kernel version one after the other is a path to a solution? It feels more like a path to madness to me."
Testing the latest mainline kernel keeps your bug relevant to upstream (the folks who would provide a fix).
>"To recap, 14.04 with kernel 3.13 *was* working and both 14.10 (with kernel 3.16) - 15.04 (with kernel 3.19) *were not* working. 15.10 wasn't working either but Apple released in October a "bios" upgrade that you make me apply to debug the situation. Since then 14.04 doesn't work anymore."
From my understanding, 14.04+ does work booting with nomodeset.
>"Do you have any suggestion?"
Are there any negatives when you boot using nomodeset?
