Public bug reported:
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:

But if I boot into safe mode on 16.10 the description is missing and X
will not start.
