@spl0 I don't wanna :( plus 16.04 was my best shot as it comes with linux 4.4, the only kernel supported by my hardware. Getting other linux to work would be harder

@spl0 dell i7559, its hw is too much for linux apparently 😂

@spl0 The skylake processor and the probably the gpu

@spl0 I don't use emacs :/

@drRoss I have been using linux for 3 years and it sorta has become my home

@coookie Fair enough.

@coookie I doubt it's the processor, I'm running Ubuntu with a Skylake i7 (6700k from memory).

@njedwards 16.04?

@coookie yep.

@coookie confirm secure boot is disabled and install without 3rd part drivers.
