there is heaps of work in this github repo to bring the i915 GPU in-sync
with the 4.6 linux kernel.  mmacy who is spearheading this effort is
also keen to support AMD GPU's as well - and I believe some work has
started to make that so:

YMMV as I've only been focusing on Haswell and Skylake support (both of
which have been working great) - but this branch is under active
development.

Cheers,
