Thanks Robie. Only sense I can make of it (since I struggled for a while, before trying downgrade of intel-microcode) --- downgrade flushed / did something w/ some settings, somewhere (and that persisted).
I've upgraded to 4.4.0.93.98 kernel now, with latest intel-microcode, and all continues to work apparently well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1713532 Title: Intel-8260 not init'd by intel-microcode=3.20170707.1~ubuntu16.04.0 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-microcode/+bug/1713532/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
