Title:
  Ubuntu 15.10 VMWare guest won't show UI after upgrading to 4.2.0-30

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've interrupted boot (by holding the Shift key whilst powering on the
  VM) to bring up the Grub menu (it took several attempts to get it),
  selected "Advanced options for Ubuntu", highlighted the previous
  kernel ("Ubuntu, with Linux 4.2.0-27-generic"), and booted.

  Once the system came back up I logged in and did:

  apt-get --purge remove linux-image-4.2.0-30-generic linux-image-
  extra-4.2.0-30-generic

  My VM(s) will now reboot.

  Looks like the new kernel is broke.

  I'm running VMware Workstation Pro 12.1.0 build-3272444 on Windows 7
  64-bit and my VMs are using open-vm-tools.
