i did some more tests again to make things clear: downloaded Xubuntu 14.04 32 and 64 bit
- installed the 64 Bit version into an VM, make shure to *do not* check the box "install updates while installation" - installed Synaptics via Terminal and the VirtualBox extensions to get an better resolution; reboot - check the package sources: main, universe, restricted, multiverse, switched to main server - check the additional software: Canonical-partner and independant - check updates: security, updates, proposed, backports - close Synaptic, open a Terminal, check for updates --> 345 aktualisiert, 0 neu installiert, 0 zu entfernen und 10 nicht aktualisiert. - check for dist-upgrades --> 355 aktualisiert, 28 neu installiert, 0 zu entfernen und 0 nicht aktualisiert. so the upgrade process for the kernel works and would be upgraded from 3.13.0-19 to -24. i thought, the "linux-generic" is missing so this could not work. sorry for buging - i set the bug report to invalid. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1295998 Title: linux-generic (and dependencies) is not automatically installed Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I installed 2 machines with Trusty.
