This sounds more like a problem with users not having proper meta packages installed, so getting version skew.
sudo apt-get install linux-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic That should pull in everything required, please test and make sure. If you had the proper metapackages before (linux-386 or linux-686 for example) and this did not pull in the proper updated metapackages, it's something we need to fix in linux-meta, not in update-manager. -- 6.06.1 upgrade of nvidia restricted modules fails https://launchpad.net/bugs/70235 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
