My server runs Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS. I try to keep it up to date as possible by doing
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade regularly. So far I was assuming that this would update the kernel as well. Today I noticed however that I am running a totally outdated kernel (uname-r gives 3.2.0-77-generic).
Doing sudo apt-get dist-upgrade didn't fix this. Then I tried sudo apt-get install linux-generic linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic - also with no success...
Why am I not receiving the latest kernels and how can I fix this?
