I have a laptop dell vostro 3560. It had Ubuntu 15.04, but after a fresh install of ubuntu 15.10, WiFi, Bluetooth, USB ports and sound don't work. I have wired internet connection though.

modprobe wl gives this error. What does that means?

$ sudo modprobe wl

modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:578 kmod_search_moddep() could not open moddep file '/lib/modules/4.2.5-040205-generic/modules.dep.bin'

    Please ask one question at a time. Regarding wireless drivers http://askubuntu.com/questions/55868/installing-broadcom-wireless-drivers – Pilot6 Oct 28 '15 at 13:18
  • It IS one question since everything worked fine on the previous version without me manually installing any drivers and now after fresh install nothing works, so I think it's all connected and there must be some simple solution – Anastasiya Miloslavskaya Oct 28 '15 at 15:50
  • It is three questions regarding wifi, bluetooth and usb. All have answers. – Pilot6 Oct 28 '15 at 15:53
  • @Pilot6 you may wish to weigh in: http://meta.askubuntu.com/q/14609 – Tim Oct 28 '15 at 16:51
  • @Tim No, answer is not same. Even bluetooth and wifi is the same physical chip, but there are two separate solutions for them. The sound issue is the 4th one, that is not related at all. – Pilot6 Oct 28 '15 at 17:08
  • And also there is some mainline unsupported mainline kernel 4.2.5-040205-generic. I suggest OP to boot with an Ubuntu kernel. – Pilot6 Oct 28 '15 at 17:18

    It looks like either today or yesterday they released an updated kernel for Ubuntu. I'd try upgrading to the latest kernel and seeing if that helps anything. (idk if it's the kernel or what but Ubuntu has been completely freezing ever since I updated to 15.10, and the logs haven't shown anything.) – Hitechcomputergeek Nov 08 '15 at 02:46
  • well... after kernel update the stated problems were solved but now I have a new one. The system gets stuck at ubuntu logo and doesn't boots unless I go to recovery mode -> resume. Every solution I could find is for older ubuntu versions and doesn't work for wily. Should I create a new thread for this matter? – Anastasiya Miloslavskaya Nov 09 '15 at 13:07
