I've been thrown off track by this many times in the past, but always assumed that I had remembered something wrongly.



It turns out that I have both linux-image-3.13.0-88-generic and linux-image-4.2.0-38-generic



From software updater while updating



in my standard installation of Ubuntu 14.04.



What the devil's going on here?



No wonder I have struggled to check my current kernel many times in the past. Are these kernels?



I would usually expect a kernel filename to commence with "vmlinuz". Is that right or wrong?



Here are some more screenshots, of other items that always throw me off course. I don't even know which ones are the same and which aren't.
From uname -a
From askubuntu questions webpage
From software updater while updating
From software updater during update

Edit: I just loaded the pictures one-by-one again, because a couple of the screenshots were missing the first time that I loaded them.

One is a old one and one is a new one. Version 4.4 is the new one, and the latest in the Ubuntu repositories, and version 3.13 is the old one and the one that came with Ubuntu 14.04.
