i installed latest kernel but after reboot am still running the 4.2.0 kernel

Even after a reboot?
Also, what is the output of:

Code:

dpkg --list | grep linux-image

[/quote]

Not even after a reboot.
I get this output:

Code:

W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/sun-java-community-team/sun-java6/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-amd64/Packages  404  Not Found

W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/sun-java-community-team/sun-java6/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/binary-i386/Packages  404  Not Found

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

The outcome of dpkg --list | grep linux-image after reboot is

Code:

theo@theo-laptop:~$ dpkg --list | grep linux-imageii  linux-image-3.13.0-66-generic               3.13.0-66.108                           amd64        Linux kernel image for version 3.13.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP

You've added a PPA at some stage for Java by the looks that is broken. Remove the PPA and try again, should be fine then. Then install the new kernel again.

Thanks Jerry,
I removed the PPA and kernel installed without a problem.
Not sure why my brain didnt pick up on that PPA error. Maybe bit too tired. But now all is fine again.

@Jerry.

Whilst investigating an issue with Systemback not allowing you to create new live system, which appears to be kernel related.

I found this related to kernel 4.2, will you be doing an update from 4.2.0 to 4.2.6.?,
or will you just provide the initial releases. 4.2.0 , 4.3.0 , 4.4.0

The 4.2.6 article mentions "fixes" to "overlayfs" one of the things the Systemback dev referred to.

Thanks...

...or will you just provide the initial releases. 4.2.0 , 4.3.0 , 4.4.0

Just the above releases, not the incrementals.

O.K... Many Thanks

I have two machines, one a PC with an Nvidia 970 graphics card, the other a lap-top with the spec shown here.
I have installed the 4.3 kernel on both with no problems, but in addition the new kernel has resolved the running sore of problems I was having with Optimus Prime and nvidia on the Laptop.

I am one very contented user. Thank you for your hard work and talent. ;D

4.4 Linux Lite Kernel is now available for 32 & 64bit machines.

Open a terminal and do:

Code:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-headers-linuxlite-4.4.0 linux-image-linuxlite-4.4.0 -y

Ignore any errors in the terminal.
IMPORTANT: Only install this kernel if you need it or if you are adept at getting out of trouble from a TTY.

Look forward to your feedback. Thank you.

just updated to new kernel 4.4 but it did not end well. Right now it cannot see 2 screen and only display with 1027*768 resolution cannot select suggested ones for the screens as they are not in the list.

I am using proprietary driver "NVIDIA legacy binary driver version 304.131 from nvidia-304-updates" for GeForce 7000M/nForce 610M

I going to install xorg driver and install this one or similar one back and will see what happens.

Thank you for any suggestions.

EDIT: Installing the xorg driver fixed my problem after a restart. Hope helps someone else.
