seeker5528, the next step is to fully reverse commit bisect from kernel
4.4 to 4.8-rc5 in order to identify the last bad commit, followed
immediately by the first good one. Once this good commit has been
identified, it may be reviewed for backporting. Could you please do this
following
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection#How_do_I_reverse_bisect_the_upstream_kernel.3F
?
Please note, finding adjacent kernel versions is not fully commit
bisecting.
Also, the kernel release names are irrelevant for the purposes of
bisecting.
It is most helpful that after the fix commit (not kernel version) has
been identified, you then mark this report Status Confirmed.
Thank you for your help.

Title:
lose monitor during boot up if I don't add 'nomodeset' to kernel
options
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
If I connect my monitor to my computer with a VGA cable my monitor
goes blank, complains of no video signal, then goes to sleep as soon
as the kernel attempts to enable mode setting.
Turning the monitor off and back on does not help, unplugging the VGA
cable and connecting the DVI cable does not help. I have to hit
'Ctrl'+'Alt'+'Del' and wait for the computer to restart or hit the
power button and wait for the computer to shutdown.
If I connect the monitor to the computer with a DVI cable, everything
works as expected.
I do not have the option for HDMI on the monitor currently attached.
WORKAROUND: Add to the grub menu kernel parameter:
nomodeset
