I went to install updates on my Computer using the Gnome Update manager and it gave me this error



What is this error?

[firenice03]

Does LL update manager give a similar?

But an idea - - What kernel version are you running? Can be found with:"

Code:

uname -a

Looks like 3.16/3.19/4.2 expire this month..??.. As per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Support

Now with that... LL I believe uses a custom kernel so not 100% if follows similar paths..

Hope it helps point in the right direction...

Updated:
Oh, and as the image says https://wiki.ubuntu.com/1404_HWE_EOL
The kernel has been EOL'd.

Code:

Linux LiamLinuxLite 3.19.0-68-generic #76~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Aug 12 11:47:02 UTC 2016 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux

The command that you gave me got me the results above. The question is, shall I hit update or Ignore it? And no, The LL updater does not show me this.

Kernel 3.19...
I wouldn't use the Gnome updater to update - especially the kernel... But this is me; others may advise.
I'd wait for those that can speak to the LL kernel whether an update is required... Upside it is fairly easy to update the kernel should you need to...

Is it safe to update or not?

liamjake05,

I cannot see your snapshot from my work PC.  But on the issue of your kernel, I saw this path coming when LL released version 2.8 with the kernel you're on.  I stayed with kernel 3.13 since I wasn't installing a fresh copy of 2.8, but merely upgrading to 2.8 from 2.6.

At this point, you can either use Install/Remove Software to install 3.13, which is supported until April 2019, or you can upgrade from 3.19 to 4.4, which is also supported until April 2019.

You may be able to upgrade to 4.4 using the following code or by opening Install/Remove Software, and clicking on Installed (upgradeable), in the left pane, as seen in the manual here:  https://dfgkh547-jsdfv8.iyhkj.tk/manual/softw...l#heldpack.

Code:

sudo apt-get install linux-generic

[liamjake05]

Synaptic does not show anything about this

[firenice03]

Again I wouldn't use the Gnome Manger to update...

You will use terminal to run the commands..
I would make a SystemBack backup for the just in case...

For 3.13

Code:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-headers-linuxlite-3.13.0 linux-image-linuxlite-3.13.0 -y

For 4.4

Code:

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

Can you give me the commands for the ubuntu kernal?

[torreydale]

Three things:

1) You could use the terminal command I listed earlier.

2) You could install/upgrade/reinstall linux-generic using Synaptic Package Manager.

3) In Synaptic Package Manager (ie Install/Remove Software), you need to click on Reload first.  Then Installed (upgradeable) in the left pane.  If nothing there, just do Reload, Mark All Upgrades, and Apply.
