Touchpad (Mouse), wifi/ethernet, and speaker does not work after upgrading kernel

I have a local machine on ubuntu (20.04, ), recently I have upgraded kernel version 5.15.0-60 generic, and after rebooting, both my Wi-Fi and Ethernet and touchpad mouse does not work. I did following command to see the ip address of them, instead of enlp.... stays br-4a..... and description is (NO-CARRIER, BROADCAST, MULTICAST, UP). I thought that I could download kernel from official repo and send it to removable device and install it manually but I kind of have a doubt that it is proper way to solve this problem. I also noticed that speaker does not work, it shows as a "Dummy output". Are there any ways to roll back, to previous kernel version?

P.S. When I start my local machine, log showed up with starting services, and one task failed

[FAILED] Failed to start LSB: VirtualBox Linux kernel module See 'systemctl status virtualbox.service' for details

I looked it up and it showed:

virtualbox.service - LSB: VirtualBox Linux kernel module  
Loaded: loaded(/etc/init.d/virtualbox; generated)
Docs: man: systemd-sysv-generator(8)
Process: 2471 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/virtualbox start (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)

Seems you question might be missing an important detail or two. Is it a VM? Please edit the question and add all the details.

@David, It is not VM, this distro installed on my local machine, it is not installed on a virtual environment.

I solved this problem, the problem was kernel version that I upgraded. I rolled back and use older version, and it worked)

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
