Some additional news.

I've asked to a PC integrator company to do the following job on any recent
laptop. The brand is not important to me, I just want wifi in operation.

>From a W10 UEFI laptop PC, they have installed, in dual boot, Ubuntu 16.04,
no problem, but even them could not acivate wifi.

they did the trial on Asus and Toshiba PCs.

So I guess there is a problem with Ubuntu wifi on recent UEFI PCs, don't
you think so?
Then it would be a key issue for the people who buy a laptop, because wifi
is compulsory.

Thank you to think it over, because so far I'm stuck with the HP PC and
need to switch to W10 Wifi which is not my objective

  Wifi works on W10 but not on Ub 16.04 nor 14.04

Bug description:
  Hi
  I just bought a laptop "HP Envy x360 15-w100nf". Everything's fine except wifi
  - It works on w10
  - but not on Ub 16.04 / 4.4.0-15 / 64 bits
  - nor Ub 14.04

  I've spent hours of discussions and tests on wifi forum
  URL = https://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=1987186
  (unfortunately it's in French but command line tests are quite understandable)

  Now I think nobody can help me on the forum because we've tried everything, that's why I assume it's a bug.
  I'm ready to make every test which could help solving this problem

  In the meantime, have a nice day (actually a nice night ... in France !)
