[Bug 1687623] Re: linux-4.4.0-77.98 was a phased update in -updates only and may become partially installed (was: 4.4.0-77-generic breaks internet on 16.04.2)

@Bryan Smith - dist-upgrade in Terminal should fix the problem, you will
get the full kernel. I had this problem on Xubuntu 16.04 (and would have
affected anyone on *buntu 16.04 updating through the Software Updater).

Bug description:
  Hi as per title today I updated to  4.4.0-77-generic on my Lubuntu
  16.04.02 and wifi is not working anymore. When I click on the network
  manager I see "enable networking" (which is toggled) but no more the
  option about wifi.

  I reported this on ubuntuforum:
  https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2360216

  Where a user suggested to revert to an older kernel and see if this
  fixes the problem. I managed to revert to 4.4.0-75-generic via grub
  and everything works perfectly.

  Another user reported a similar issue caused by the same upgrade on
  the same system: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2360215

  Can someone else confirm this bug?

  If you need more information I will be happy to provide it (I am a
  newbie though so please be patient).
