The kernel includes all open source drivers and these usually work very well. Proprietary drivers (NVIDIA, AMD, Broadcom...etc) are not included and they need to compile themselves against every kernel you install. This is done via a mechanism called DKMS.

If a proprietary driver isn't properly recompiled with DKMS for one of your kernels, it will not function correctly with that kernel.

New kernel series usually become available before proprietary drivers support them via DKMS. If you are using proprietary drivers, it is recommended to stick to kernel updates and not to install kernels from series which are newer than the series of the recommended kernels.

If something doesn't work with the latest kernel you installed (or the latest kernel update), reboot, select the kernel you were previously using, remove the new kernel and reboot again.
