Hi Jack, I have been using devuan on a i5-6200U for almost two years now, and without any problem. It was first a jessie, which was later upgraded to an ascii. Everything works. I must note that I am using the Intel video card (I don't remember if you had anything else instead). With kernel 4.5, 4.7, 4.9, 4.11, everything works fine, even the HDMI output port (that I use quite a lot). Hope this helps.
