>"Christopher Penalver, I've now tested the 4.8-rc5. Unsurprisingly the
result is the same than for 4.8-rc4. Do you think that testing each new
kernel version one after the other is a path to a solution? It feels
more like a path to madness to me."


Testing the latest mainline kernel keeps your bug relevant to upstream (the 
folks who would provide a fix).

>"To recap, 14.04 with kernel 3.13 *was* working and both 14.10 (with
kernel 3.16) - 15.04 (with kernel 3.19) *were not* working. 15.10 wasn't
working either but Apple released in October a "bios" upgrade that you
make me apply to debug the situation. Since then 14.04 doesn't work
anymore."

>From my understanding, 14.04+ does work booting with nomodeset.

Are there any negatives when you boot using nomodeset?
