I opened a case on this issue on 3/16/2015. It was escalated on 4/7/2015. I have not heard anything since the case was updated. I'm glad more people are opening tickets on this.
Firmware seems to work fine on the 1st gen X460-48t
Also, on the 24 port x460G2 , optics seem to work on ports 21-28, but they do not work on ports 29-32.
