Hello I just get a new laptop (SSD Samsung M.2 NVMe, and an i7 Skylake + Geforce GTX 950m. Windows 7 is already installed, I want to do a dual boot.) and I managed to install Freya, installed the latest Nvidia Drivers for the kernel 3.19 BUT impossible to update to kernel 4.2, 4.4 and 4.5, just got kernel error.. I tried to add as kernel parameter into the Grub menu, nouveau.modeset=0 or nvidia.modeset=0 , nomodeset even modprobe.blacklist=nouveau, still the same. Same result with Nvidia Drivers 364 removed and with all the different kernel parameters. On Ubuntu 16.04 beta with the kernel 4.4.0.15 and acpi=off, I can go to the live CD, but no luck from Freya with 4.4. The wifi is not working either on the 3.19, the card is not recognized, I guess it's fixed with the 4.4 kernel. I'm quite running out of option here.. Don't really want to use another distro
Hey, don't have experience with updating kernel under elementary OS, but some thoughts: is your /etc/X11/xorg.conf empty? (as in: https://elementaryforums.com/index....iver-on-linux-without-getting-black-screen.7/) if you're using an intel wifi card, installing iwlwifi from kernel backports could help (https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/iwlwifi and http://drvbp1.linux-foundation.org/~mcgrof/rel-html/backports/)
