Using up to and including 4.11.7 getting reports coming in of black screens on new laptops (includes booting to console only). The solution is to use kernel parameter acpi=off. The newer include Dell Latitude 5289 and Lenovo e-560. (although searching Internet even older system affected like HP Envy 17 j053ea and others that pci=noacpi is enough to get it working). Be nice for Linux to "just work" on these systems without special kernel parameters.
