Sorry, I need to proofread more carefully. It's kernel 4.7rc6. The complete
line from the grub menu is:
Ubuntu, with Linux 4.7.0-0407004c6-generic

I've installed 4.4.13, and it, too, seems to be working normally.

Title:
  Ubuntu 16.04 LiveCD does not boot on AMD A10 chip

Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I want to boot a Ubuntu LiveCD of 16.04 on a desktop box with an AMD 
A10-5800K AGP,  Gigabyte FA-42A75M-HD2 motherboard, 8 GB of RAM, and no 
graphics card -- the Radeon HD 7660D graphics are done by the CPU. When I try 
to boot I get an error message, "ERROR: no UMS support in radeon module." When 
I edit the boot command line to add the parameter 'nomodeset' I first get an 
error message, "No UMS support on radeon module," then the familiar aubergine 
background with the ubuntu logo and the five dots below it changing from white 
to red and back again. After twenty or thirty seconds the background goes to 
black, I get the error message "No UMS support in radeon module," and the 
ubuntu logo disappears but the five dots continue. After another twenty or 
thirty seconds of that the screen clears, at the top is a line: "ubuntu 16.04 
ubuntu LTS tty1," below that the line "ubuntu login:" and after a second or 
less the screen goes black and I can't do anything except reboot. I've tried 
old Liv
 e CDs, from 10.10 to 15.10, and they all boot fine.
