Hi, Sorry for the slow reply. I have been somewhat distracted by a physical illness
As others have done, I set a GRUB variable with the line:- GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text I also commented out the line that set the GRUB variable GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 With those changes in place, 1. Graphics problems disappear. 2. It is easier to choose a particular kernel at boot time However, in last week's testing I noticed a few problems with other kernels. I'll summarise my notes because I tested about 11 kernels. The 4.14.-041400rc5-generic kernel doesn't have network access - both ethernet and Wi-Fi don't work. There was a temporary regression in 4.13.0-0413rc1-generic and4.13.0-0413rc2-generic where the trackpad doesn't work.
