Ok...For anyone with a Dell XPS 13 9360 who experiences an issue like
this:
So I decided to purge and reinstall DKMS:
sudo apt-get purge dkms
BUT that removes all the following:
dkms hid-multitouch-dkms intel-hid-dkms intel-vbutton-dkms oem-audio-
hda-daily-dkms virtualbox-dkms
I purged, then went in and manually deleted /var/ib/dkms and all its
folders. I thought I could just copy/paste that line above with apt-get
install to reinstall everything. I was wrong.
I have a Dell XPS 13 9360 Developer Edition laptop which has some Dell
provided driver kernel modules.
oem-audio-hda-daily-dkms was available on their update repo. That was
installed by apt-get just fine.
hid-multitouch-dkms intel-hid-dkms intel-vbutton-dkms were NOT available
in their update repo. I had to pull those from the Dell OEM Recovery
ISO they offer of Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
I installed them using dpkg.
I then found the following to rebuild kernel modules:
ls /var/lib/initramfs-tools | \
sudo xargs -n1 /usr/lib/dkms/dkms_autoinstaller start
All appears fine again, but what a pain!!!
