It complains that "fails to request state" when trying most actions or similar errors. The root of these problems is because the variables have been set as immutable after this kernel commit: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/ed8b0de5a33d2a2557dce7f9429dca8cb5bc5879 In many instances mokutil will delete the variable and recreate it, so changing it with chattr isn't a workable solution as the kernel will just recreate it with the immutable attribute and it will fail over again. I've submitted a kernel patch for this upstream: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/3/22/733 I feel this should be backported in Ubuntu's kernel as well.
