I have the UX360CA and UX501VW.

The fanless Core-Y UX360CA never had any issues, works out of the box.

UX501VW has fan control issues with 16.04, which you can solve by installing a newer kernel (4.8 series) or by upgrading to 16.10. You must do this, otherwise the fan will run at loud, insane speeds and might eventually wear out. NVidia graphics will work without issues, but switchable graphics doesn't work via NVidia's control panel. I don't need the discrete GPU, so I'm exclusively using Intel drivers. Driver does crash (screen flickers) at times with my external 4k monitor. Apart from that, Powertop takes care of Power management issues. Overall, expect to spend 3-4 hours getting UX501VW set up.
