[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1580434@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I run Ubuntu desktop 15.10 in a Oracle VirtualBox VM. After updating the kernel to 4.2.0-36 Unity stopped working (after the restart). The symptoms were:
- The screen would not use the entire real estate in either the full screen or the windowed mode (of the VM)
- On entering login information, only the desktop background would display without dash/launcher, files on desktop or any menu or keyboard action.
- If you started / restarted unity from a shell (Ctrl + Shift + F1 or from a SSH session), the desktop files and mouse/keyboard actions would work, but still no dash/launcher.

The problems went away after falling back to kernel 4.2.0-35.

If additional information is required, please let me know I will try my
best to get that.
