Summary

Update Instructions

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 16.04 ESM: linux-image-4.15.0-206-generic 4.15.0-206.217~16.04.1+1 linux-image-4.15.0-206-lowlatency 4.15.0-206.217~16.04.1+1 linux-image-generic-hwe-16.04 4.15.0.206.191 linux-image-lowlatency-hwe-16.04 4.15.0.206.191 linux-image-oem 4.15.0.206.191 linux-image-virtual-hwe-16.04 4.15.0.206.191 After a standard system update you need to reboot your computer to make all the necessary changes. ATTENTION: Due to an unavoidable ABI change the kernel updates have been given a new version number, which requires you to recompile and reinstall all third party kernel modules you might have installed. Unless you manually uninstalled the standard kernel metapackages (e.g. linux-generic, linux-generic-lts-RELEASE, linux-virtual, linux-powerpc), a standard system upgrade will automatically perform this as well.
