I tried using the following kernel as suggested from this link;
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.3-wily/

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.3-wily/linux-
headers-4.3.0-040300-generic_4.3.0-040300.201511020949_amd64.deb

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.3-wily/linux-
image-4.3.0-040300-generic_4.3.0-040300.201511020949_amd64.deb

This resulted in a unbootable system, so used a previous kernel from
Ubuntu menu and then removed the offending kernel image.

Also i am using propriety Nvidia drivers, so that could be a cause as the 
kernel failed to install properly .
Preparing to install an upstream kernel

First, if one is using select proprietary or out-of-tree modules (ex.
vitualbox, nvidia, fglrx, bcmwl, etc.) unless there is an extra package
available for the version you are testing, you will need to uninstall
the module first, in order to test the mainline kernel. If you do not
uninstall these modules first, then the upstream kernel more than likely
will not boot.
