NEO Z83-4: Ubuntu 18.04.01 Build

I've tried all of them .. and it seems that I do not save settings and after reboot it stays on the 2.4 GHz channel.
 
Hi! I bought a minix z83-4u with ubuntu. It works fine after some few configurations. But when i stream Videos via wifi and hdmi, the Video laggs every 30-40seconds. I tried to reinstall the Intel drivers but the system says it is updated.
Are you able to hell me? Thank you!

Thank you a lot! I never thought about using another program.

My WLAN works fine, but ubuntu does not detect sound card??? Do not even see Dummy Output Any ideas?
I installed the ubuntu build listed on page 1. That allowed my WIFI to work, but sound is a no go. Tried
sudo alsa force-reload
and
sudo apt-get remove --purge alsa-base pulseaudio
sudo apt-get install alsa-base pulseaudio
And force reload Alsa again:
sudo alsa force-reload

Ubuntu still does not see sound controller?
I have a NEO Z83-4 Model Z834-6C1058
ran
alsamixer
says
Card: Intel HDMI/DP LPE Audio
and
This sound device does not have any controls.

So I tried this but it was never able to boot to it properly after I selected to the boot option it popped up with the install or try menu and after I selected 'install', the screen turn black and I assume that it had stopped giving a display signal

I initially had an HDMI to VGA cable and nothing plugged into the audio out stereo cable output. I moved the Minux over to the Entertainment center and plugged the HDMI into my A/V receiver, then it somehow detected/displayed the sound hardware devices. Works now, but I have to manually select the sound output each time. The default audio output selection does not work.

Hey John,

Is there a mirror for this file anywhere? I'm trying to download but it's estimating 5+ hours and is failing every other try. I'm on a fiber connection so it should be fast enough.

Thanks,
