Title:
  kernel 4.2.0-36 causes unity to break on 15.10

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I run Ubuntu desktop 15.10 in a Oracle VirtualBox VM 5.0.20 r106931. 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.
