Linux headers generics

ubuntu_ulysses

I have a trouble with the linux headers, when i use the command uname to check my version it is different from the version in usr/src/. I tried to download (with deleting the current version) but i couldn't because the version it's old. The root of the problem is that i can't start virtualbox o vmware because that reason. I hope you can help me. Thanks! uname -r 3.13.0-35-generic VmWare Kernel headers for version 3.13.0-35-generic not found...

Great question — answering as the UphillTech team:

if you excute the command sudo update-grub it would update your grub boot list to point to the 3.16.0-35 kernel in the first place, hence it will be the default kernel. what you have is a case where you booted in using 3.13 instead of the "latest on your machine" kernel which is 3.16.0-24
