I didn't read back enough to see what processor your NUC has, but if it is Baytrail (and maybe some others) this will probably fix it.

OK, so now I have done grub editing and rebooted. Will see how it performs during the day.

Thanks for the tip mozmck

Anyhow I decided to bite the bullet and ordered

Even if I get the NUC running I need to exchange the PC in my milling machine.

isolcpus=2,3 intel_idle.max_cstate=1 i915.enable_rc6=0 i915.enable_dc=0

above looks like a good medicine for this NUC to run, no freezing so far!

Oh no......... It hanged in Youtube now, frame freeze and audio in loop. totally unreachable only reboot helps.

So this box is not going to work with Debian as it looks like. Maybe we can get it working with Mint that ozzyrob is working on.

Seems a bit fishy, that it hangs like that. Me thinks there is something wrong somewhere and I really don't know if another Linux version would be a fix.

But in saying that........

How do you want to go about the Mint solution ? You want to build everything or you want packages, which would take a while to upload ?

Well fishy is the right word as regards 64bit,, haven't done extensive 32bit tests but those i've done it have been running fine.

The Mint 18.3 I had earlier installed seemed to be running well but I did not get LCNC to work at all.
I assume I need to install Mint 18.3 and go from there, right? I have linuxmint-18.3-cinnamon-64bit.iso
Easiest for you is for sure to give me links and instructions on how to go from there with a basic Mint 18.3 installed.

I can fix ftp adress to my server if you want to upload but I understand your uplink is not so fast so maybe it is not a good idea.
