Hello,

I have an HP EliteOne 800 G2 AiO which according to "lspci -v" has a Intel Corporation Sky Lake Integrated Graphics (rev 06). I have previously installed Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS with kernel 4.4 on the computer and today also installed Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS (clean install from a USB memory) which has kernel 4.8.0-36-generic. If I understand things right there should be new graphic hardware support in 16.04.2.

Unfortunately, for both 16.04.2 and 16.04.1 I have the same problem which is that the screen is split in half so that the whole desktop is squeezed into the upper half of the screen. Do you have any idea how to get the graphics working? Thanks in advance!

Best regards, Eric

Try disabling legacy boot and switching to UEFI boot in the BIOS
settings.

Relevant bug report https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97822

Thanks, however, I probably did something stupid since it didn't work for me. I went into BIOS: F10 > BIOS Setup > Advanced > Secure Boot Configuration - here I changed "Legacy Support Enable and Secure Boot Disable" to "Legacy Support Disable and Secure Boot Disable". When I then try to boot the system I get "BootDevice Not Found. Please install an operating system on your hard disk. Hard Disk - (3F0)". If I try to boot the system from a USB memory to install Linux again I cannot do it since if I press F9 for boot menu it is just blank. It suggest a hard disk check and the quick test shows no errors. When I switch back to "Legacy Support Enable and Secure Boot Disable" the installed system boots Linux as before (with the same graphics problem as before of course). Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Best regards, Eric

You need an EFI system partition and your boot loader (likely grub)
installed there. You probably only have the boot loader installed for
MBR boot, which will not be used for EFI boot.

Depending on how much you've tweaked the installed system and what your
experience with installing boot loaders is, it might be easier to just
reinstall the system. Typically you should boot the install media with
the boot method you're going to use.

There's some background info for Ubuntu at [1], but I think with new
machines the scales have tipped to UEFI working better than legacy boot.


BR,
Jani.

Thanks alot! Switching to UEFI mode did make the graphic work, fantastic!

What I don't understand is how the graphics could work for Windows (which was preinstalled on the computer). Shouldn't the bug in BIOS mode / Legacy Support affect Windows as much as it affects Linux, right?

Best, Eric

I'm no alot [1], but glad it worked for you!

I'm surprised if Windows was not installed in UEFI mode. But it's
possible we do something slightly different from Windows, and we could
fix this in BIOS mode too, but it seems like a rather rare case.

BR,
Jani.
