Hi Mathias,

	Yes, native support for the graphics is in Kernel 4.3, not 4.2
(Intel South Lake HD520 chipset).  I gather there's been a bit of
shoehorning to get 4.2 to work with this board.  4.3 should be in
Ubuntu 16.04 (next upgrade - few months).

Update on USB 3 to USB 3.  Got the ports to work with an external HDD
(wall powered).  So, it seems that the issue is a specific hardware
issue.  The USB thumbdrive is a 32GB Silicon Power USB 3.0 (http://www.
silicon
-power.com/product/product_detail.php?currlang=utf8&main=10&sub=79&pro=
269&type=sp#a_1) that was not working.

So...is it common to see product specific USB 3 issues?  Is this due to
USB 3 protocols/specifications not being implemented properly by
manufacturers?


Anyway to troubleshoot this thumbdrive, or is that a piece by piece fix
that is unfeasible?

Thanks,
Andor
