Yeah, went in and deleted those lines.

Do you know if you have any older hardware that might stop working with the newer kernel? For example my video card is not supported past 12.04.
Eh I don't think so. Everything I have, excluding my hard drive, is only a year or two old.
I asked my good friend the wireless expert's advice and he suggests a couple of things before upgrading the kernel.
Do:
Does it install now?Code:sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
Let's double check your kernel version:
post results of the last command here.Code:lsb_release -d
Installing the headers failed, but here is the result of the last command.
emmett@jarvis:~$ lsb_release -d
Description: Ubuntu 14.10
One last check:
post results.Code:uname -a
Thanks
Here you go
Linux jarvis 3.13.0-37-generic #64-Ubuntu SMP Mon Sep 22 21:28:38 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Here are the directions for installing the new kernel, run one command at a time and watch for errors, after each command is done run the next one and they must be ran in order.
Before running the last command make sure there are no other .deb files in your tmp folder.Code:cd /tmp/ wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.16-utopic/linux-headers-3.16.0-031600-generic_3.16.0-031600.201408031935_amd64.deb wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.16-utopic/linux-headers-3.16.0-031600_3.16.0-031600.201408031935_all.deb wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.16-utopic/linux-image-3.16.0-031600-generic_3.16.0-031600.201408031935_amd64.deb sudo dpkg -i linux-headers-3.16.0-*.deb linux-image-3.16.0-*.deb
Then reboot and run the commands in my previous post to install the new driver.
To clarify, do you mean these commands?
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
No, I meant these commands:
Then reboot and do:Code:cd /tmp/ wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.16-utopic/linux-headers-3.16.0-031600-generic_3.16.0-031600.201408031935_amd64.deb wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.16-utopic/linux-headers-3.16.0-031600_3.16.0-031600.201408031935_all.deb wget http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.16-utopic/linux-image-3.16.0-031600-generic_3.16.0-031600.201408031935_amd64.deb sudo dpkg -i linux-headers-3.16.0-*.deb linux-image-3.16.0-*.deb
Code:sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-headers-$(uname -r) linux-headers-generic build-essential git dkms git clone https://github.com/pvaret/rtl8192cu-fixes.git sudo dkms add ./rtl8192cu-fixes sudo dkms install 8192cu/1.9 echo "blacklist rtl8192cu" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
