    22.04 LTS stuck on old kernel from March 2024

    I've been stuck on this old kernel for a long time now. I was having issues with software updater crashing for a while but that's been fixed. I just had software updater run and without issues. I also have the Ubuntu Pro extended security updates enabled.


    Code:
    Linux yoga9i 6.5.0-26-generic #26~22.04.1-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue Mar 12 10:22:43 UTC 2 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
    uname -r
    6.5.0-26-generic
    I've ran sudo apt update followed by sudo apt upgrade also. I'm not sure why I'm stuck on this old kernel and debating on upgrading to 24.04. Any ideas? I also followed a youtube post for manually updating the kernel. But after I manually updated the kernel to a newer release and rebooted it broke my bluetooth and possible other things so I rolled back. Thanks for any help.

    Do you still have the required kernel meta packages to upgrade kernels?
    Code:
    dpkg -l | grep hwe-22.04
    I use the term meta very loosely because technically I guess it's not, but the description of meta is probably the best way to describe it.

    It doesn't look like I do because if I run>
    dpkg -l | grep hwe-22.04
    It returns nothing. Thanks for any more help.

    Code:
    sudo apt install linux-generic-hwe-22.04
    See if that works

    Awesome! That worked. I ran that and it installed the old kernels or images or something. Then I rebooted and ran updater and it installed the kernel from June 2024! Thanks for the help deadflowr & jeremy31! I would give you guys kudos but I'm not seeing the button right now.
