Title:
  In Ubuntu 15.10, the vmlinuz-4.2.0-17-generic will not take password
  on splash screen

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I version-upgraded Ubuntu 15.04  in place to Ubuntu 15.10 on an HP workstation with a Intel Core i7 and 16GB RAM.  The HDD was previously in a different computer, and I have seen issues with the settings from the old machine fighting with the settings for current OS version.  The behaviour is as follows:
  When I log in with the 4.2.x kernel, the machine changes to a blank screen pauses for a moment and returns me to the login splash screen.
  I can log in normally if I use the 3.19.0-32-generic kernel.
  I can also change to TTY1 and log in at the command line with the 4.2.x kernel.
