So I got a Intel graffex I'm using the onboard.
Also looking at the LL manual covered what I have looked at would a nvidia driver work?
See from manual
sudo apt-get install nvidia-prime nvidia-331-updates nvidia-settings
Thanks.

LLCC is now working getting updates.

Could try updates again. Maybe server was busy.
Which server are you using. menu/all/software & updates/ ubuntu software/ download from /other / united kingdom / select best server then with highlighted server choose best server and authenticate?? Then try updates again?? Might work.

I did get updates but still no drivers are showing in LLCC.

Might be worth exploring update of Kernel to 3.19?? See devoted section on forum for this process. Careful.

Newer kernel would be worth a shot. Something 4.2 and up for Skylake chips. I'd try 4.4

I don't know here you got that kernel from, it shouldn't matter, but we do provide our own.

Updated the kernel from other thread Sudo ######
I should have spent more time looking at what the kernel is and does.

Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'as root. If it is available in your distribution, you should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary.

Help please again :-[
I have loaded DKMS package from LLCC and looked in this folder '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv but vboxdrv not there unless it's hidden.
Just removed 4.0 LL Tweaks.
