Thanks a lot!

I will try this out as soon as I gather some much needed bravery.

So far I have bought a new mobo (asus Hero VIII) and was getting some very ... 
curious behavior on it (making a writeup right now) that I was able to 
reproduce on a different box with same  model of motherboard and CPU.

Frankly, I am very looking forward to using proprietary drivers and the GPU 
(IGFx on Skylake Core i7 is ... weird.)

Once again, thank you very much!
