Public bug reported:
Have used Ubuntu or its flavors for 3 years with no issues on this
machine. Installed Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit lts, and successively xubuntu
16.04, ubuntuMATE 16.04, and lubuntu 16.04. Each installed, but with
blurred images. Could not get native 1920x1080 resolution to display.
Would like to use one of these, but am relegated to Debian or Debian
derivatives using older kernels and packages that support the driver.
Sandy Bridge integrated graphics with my i5 cpu were manufactured in
2011 -- in my opinion not too old to still work or at least be supported
somehow. A patch or updated driver would be great. There were a bunch
of these Asus cm6850 machines made.
