With Artful, I haven't been able to boot the image on my XPS 15 (9560) Dell laptop because the boot process stops half way. The boot proceeds properly if I pass the "nomodeset" kernel boot option but that won't work because there is no more hiDPI support and dual display doesn't work. This has been ongoing for several weeks, around the 4.12 kernel. Please fix it. It would be a shame for this product not to boot Artful out of the box.
