Broadwell and Lubuntu 14.10




i5-5200U Prozessor
Intel® HD Graphics 5500



I bought an Aspire v3-371 for my girlfriend.
I installes Lubuntu 14.10 on it, and kernel 3.18.5.



Also I enable dxorg-edgers ppa.



With stock lubuntu, I had some problems with freezing gui, so I installed the newer kernel, which I am using on 2 Haswell systems with no problem.




I also added xorg-edgers - after which I think it got some better.



But how to get the newest Intel drivers? I know it should be included into the kernel, but I guess it still hase some issues.
Should I download from 01.org and undo xorg-edgers and kernel 3.18?



Thanks for your help.



So actually, I just installed a newer kernel (3.19 at this time), and almost all my problems are gone.



Also I switched to Ubuntu 15.04.
