I use AVLinux 2016 and experienced already problems booting up a freshly installed system due to the nVidia card (in my case GTX 780ti). I installed an actual liquorix kernel / 4.4.01 and then i was able to use FullHD resolution with the nouveau driver.
I have no clue why it does not work under the RT kernel, IME only the proprietary drivers should make problems there, not the nouveau. On the other hand, with Mixbus3.2 i encountered no issues with plugin GUIs so far, but i admit, i don't use more than one plugin GUI at the time mostly...
With Mixbus 3.3 and 32C in Win8.1 also no problems with plugin GUIs whatsoever, incl. x42 ones, so most probably i have the luck to use good OpenGL drivers (not sure if they do use OpenGL hardware 2D acceleration thru the driver though, however, i obviously have no problem performancewise anyway).
Sent mail to Mixbus support for link to GCC5 build now. Unfortunately i had no email access to my forum and purchasing email account (no webmailer available) in the studio ... so i was a bit screwed when i wanted to install and work with it in AVLinux ... did not want to install a wrong version.
Idea for AVLinux users: Make your own fast live system USB3 stick with Mixbus and your license file using Systemback and let it run as a live system in your computer's RAM - beats an SSD performancewise. And you just need to mount a data drive to use it on whatever computer without local install of program or license (might come handy, e.g. if you want to use 'your' mixbus in other studios / portable). If you take a supported rack interface like the USB class compliant MOTU AVB series 1HU 19" ones with you, you can go sure you can use your familiar system everywhere ... very cool. Mixbus and AVLinux is a great combination.
