Bluetooth had issues on this setup. Raspbian worked, used similar settings and got BT working.

Commented following dtoverlay statement from config.txt:
cat /boot/config.txt
#dtoverlay=pi3-miniuart-bt

Modified cmdline.txt:
$ cat /boot/cmdline.txt

Matrox G200eW 1920x1200 resolution on Ubuntu 16.04

Recipe for Matrox G200eW 1920x1200 resolution on Ubuntu 16.04. (Note: Needs patch for Xorg, not easy for beginners) I am using X9SCM-F with built-in VGA controller and IPMI. Only x8 PCIe slots on this motherboard. My path is laid out below, I did not retry all of this once got it working. The resolution is most likely restricted for KVM to work. I am not interested on monitor redirection on this system, I use this system as workstation. I use 16bpp bit depth on Xserver and seems to work. The patch workings are courtesy of Samir Ibradzic. Credits to other authors whose writings helped me figure this out. https://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2012-January/028523.html The patch is for this specific PCI identifier controller in driver source, pMga->is_G200WB = (pMga->Chipset == PCI_CHIP_MGAG200_WINBOND_PCI);{ PCI_CHIP_MGAG200_WINBOND_PCI,     "mgag200 eW Nuvoton" },  $ lspci -s 03:03.0 03:03.0 VGA compatible controller: Matrox Electronics Syste...
