Apparently, it was working with 16.10 (4.8.0-46), although I had a
different setup (GNOME desktop added on an official UBUNTU installation
from DELL).

The problem started with Ubuntu Gnome 17.04 (4.10.0-19) and persisted
with 4.10.0-20.

About testing the upstream kernel, I am willing to try. I just need a
few info/confirmations:

- Should I install the "all" image? (http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-
ppa/mainline/v4.11-rc8/linux-
headers-4.11.0-041100rc8_4.11.0-041100rc8.201704232131_all.deb)

- I suppose that the best way to test it and restore the original setup
would be using a LVM snapshot, merging it back when finished, right?

- What about grub? Will the new kernel be available as an entry in the
grub menu, or should I do anything manually?

Thanks
