Why my kernel is not the latest for 14.04?












1














My kernel is currently



Linux scv 3.13.0-34-generic #60-Ubuntu SMP Wed Aug 13 15:45:27 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


But I know it should be



3.13.0-45-generic #74

Why is it not updated by default on my pc upon execution of

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

?
Any idea? How can I fix this?

Cheers!



Edit: executing



ema@scv:~$ cat /etc/issue
Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS n l

reports 14.04.2 apparently...

Edit2: on my other computer, with a fresher install of Ubuntu 14.04, I got 3.13.0-45-generic #74...

Apparently I didn't have the meta package linux-generic installed... A simple




sudo apt-get install linux-generic && sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-346


Did the trick!

Amazing, didn't think I somehow managed to remove that meta-package...



Now I got


ema@scv:~$ uname -a
Linux scv 3.13.0-46-generic #75-Ubuntu SMP Tue Feb 10 15:24:04 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Result!

    First run the cat /etc/issue command to verify what Ubuntu version do you have. I have the same kernel as you do, but my kernel Ubuntu version is 14.04. There is always a difference in between a kernel version and the distribution version.
