I have provided the following PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~inaddy/+archive/ubuntu/lp1415880

With packages for Trusty / Vivid / Wily. ALL DKMS packages will work on kernels:

3.13 (trusty), 3.19 (vivid / vivid-lts) and 4.2 (wily / wily-lts).

Please give us feedback wether this fixes (or mitigates) the issue.

Thank you
