This morning I found my computer barely usable because of a kernel update yesterday. My screen resolution was reduced to the minimum, mouse and track pad didn't work, and no wifi. After some searching online, I found that the issue was the update failed to install the "extra" package.
You can check if this is your problem by running ` dpkg --list "*4.4.0-43*" ` and seeing if you're missing the "linux-image-extra" package. If so, then you can run "sudo apt-get install linux-image-extra-4.4.0-43-generic" to fix it.
I have the same problem after the update. :( Just screen resolution, though. Mouse fine. I do have the package installed :( :( I tried upgrading to 16.10. No joy :( :( :( :( -- Stephen
