(L)ubuntu on Raspberry Pi

Is this list a good place to talk about RPi issues? If not, can anyone
suggest one?

Yesterday, I upgraded Lubuntu on my Raspberry Pi 3.

Glxgears running under 15.10 gave 20fps. Compare that to running under
16.04, where it gives 90-100fps.

The FOSS VideoCore drivers are clearly improving rather well!

The odd thing is that at one point I had kernel 4.4 thanks to
rp-update, but finalising the updated system took me back to 4.1.

The Pi doesn't use Grub or any other conventional bootloader; the GPU
starts the OS. I'm not sure how to switch kernels. Does anyone know &
could help?
