From what I've been reading, Ryzen support wasn't added until 4.10, with |
| 12 |
partial support in 4.9. So you probably won't get everything out of your |
| 13 |
new hardware. |

I am using 4.9.16 on my laptop with binary nvidia drivers, I haven't had |
| 16 |
issues yet. Although, it is one of those dual-gpu models, intel and |
| 17 |
nvidia - but the nvidia kernel module loads with no erroneous messages. |

If you have bleeding edge hardware you really need to use a newer kernel |
| 20 |
for proper support. I didn't even try my new laptop with an old kernel |
| 21 |
(most of my other machines are on 4.1 LTS still.) |
