Linux is a good choice to meet several needs, but Linux isn't a good
choice to get rid of Intel GPU issues, see

  [root@archlinux rocketmouse]# pacman -Si gvfs | grep Description
  Description     : Virtual filesystem implementation for GIO

GIO is for Gnome Input/Output

Personally, I believe it's better to stay away from gvfs and GNOME, but
to fulfill dependencies against gvfs by installing empty dummy packages.

I'm using Linux every single day, mainly Arch Linux, second most Ubuntu.

  [root@archlinux rocketmouse]# pacman -Qi gvfs | head -3
  Name            : gvfs
  Version         : 2013.08.18-1
  Description     : Dummy package
  [root@archlinux rocketmouse]# systemd-nspawn -D /mnt/moonstudio 2>/dev/null dpkg -l gvfs | grep ii
  ii  gvfs           2016:07-13-m all          Dummy package

;)
