I recently installed Ubuntu 16.04 on a new partition to dual boot with Windows 10.

I have a Dell XPS 15 (i7 7th Gen). I constantly get screen freezes at random intervals. I have seen the c-state bug and have added the necessary extension to grub to avoid this.

I do not know how to proceed from here.

Any help is appreciated.

  • Hello, I'm in the same situation, have you found any other solution beyond downgrading the kernel? – Michele Aug 06 '17 at 15:28

I had a similar issue with my Dell XPS 15. The solution for me was to downgrade my kernel from 4.10 to 4.8. Instructions on downgrading kernel. I used the 4.8.0 kernel, downloaded from Site for downloading old kernels
