Well...
Flabbergasted...
I installed last Kubuntu at home and everything worked as advertised.
Then I connected to the TV I bought as a monitor and DOESN'T $%&K!NG WORK!
8-(
Window$ works flawlessly, but Linux doesn't...
What's different between the TV at home and this one?
Beats me...

Linux is Linux is Linux.
Or is it?
I ditched my effort to make Linux Mint work in my new laptop and tried the
latest Kubuntu. Installed and updated everything, installed the
manufacturer drivers, tested it, and got HDMI to sort-of work.
Until I lost all X-display and could recover it by deleting ~/.kde and
dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xsever-xorg.
So I tried Kubuntu 10.04 but was unable to boot from the USB.
So I went back 15.10 and decided to try it little by little, I upgraded
everything but stopped short of installing the manufacturer drivers and
plugged HDMI to see what I got.
It all worked perfectly...
Baffled...
Go figure!
I'm done.

This xrandr was done with no HDMI cable plugged in, right?
Wrong... :(
I booted M$, got the 4K TV working, booted back to Linux and ran xrandr.
No joy...
Installed the whole bumbleebee enchilada.
Fan goes like a helicopter now, but no HDMI. 8-(
Thanks!

This xrandr was done with no HDMI cable plugged in, right? If so, this
is to be expected. If this xrandr command was executed with an HDMI
cable plugged in to the laptop and an HDMI device, something is wonky
and you need to start looking in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and possibly the
output of dmesg for anything that looks weird. "man intel" doesn't say
anything about potential things to try in xorg.conf. (Intel video cards
are supposed to just work....)
