[xubuntu-users] [16.04 64Bit] - Intel HD (7th Gen) GPU Support?

[Jesse Palser]

Hi,

The proprietary display drivers for *Ubuntu 16.04 are not released yet:
https://01.org/linuxgraphics/downloads

It usually takes a month or two after a *Ubuntu release for the above to 
have drivers.
Was just wondering if there was another immediate solution now?

Thanks!

Jesse
