forgot to mention the wifi card:
03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6205 [Taylor Peak] (rev 34)
        Subsystem: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6205 AGN
        Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi

and firmware (from dmesg):
[   26.341095] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: loaded firmware version 18.168.6.1 op_mode iwldvm


This started when I upgraded from Vivid enablement stack (kernel 3.19) to Wily's (kernel 4.2).
Booting with 3.19 fixes it.
