Kernel Did Not Upgrade? / Not In Grub List -- SOLVED --
Update pack 4 went fine, but something went wrong with the new kernel/Grub list.
Running uname -a still shows 3.0.0-1-amd64 kernel.
Running update-grub gives me:

I'll take some newb help from someone .. ..I need the new kernel to install and show it in the list upon boot-up.

Re: Kernel Did Not Upgrade? / Not In Grub List
Ok, thanks everyone, the option is now there and it boots into it.
Now I have the black screen though after grub selection using 3.2 kernel (nvidia 580).
usually 'nomodeset' option will get me to desktop, but not this time.
So now I'm off to solve another problem, and have to still use 3.0 kernel until then

Re: Kernel Did Not Upgrade? / Not In Grub List
I've read about this Nvidia problem before. Did you ever try the option modeset=0 or nouveau.modeset=0?

Re: Kernel Did Not Upgrade? / Not In Grub List
modeset=0
or
nouveau.modeset=0
?
I guess you have to rename the first post in this thread to mark it solved, am I wrong?

nouveau.modeset=0

Re: Kernel Did Not Upgrade? / Not In Grub List
yes, I already marked it solved.
i tried 'nomodeset', and the options you suggested, but didn't help.
I add them after the word 'quiet', hope that was in the right spot.

Re: Kernel Did Not Upgrade? / Not In Grub List
I have no idea. As far as I've read it's usually after quiet splash.BadFinger wrote:I add them after the word 'quiet', hope that was in the right spot.
Which one?kernel problem is solved.
Re: Kernel Did Not Upgrade? / Not In Grub List -- SOLVED --

nomodeset, modeset=0 and nouveau.modeset=0.
none worked

Re: Kernel Did Not Upgrade? / Not In Grub List -- SOLVED --
if you are booting into 3.2 kernel and nvidia fails try this: reinstall nvidia-kernel-dkms
Re: Kernel Did Not Upgrade? / Not In Grub List -- SOLVED --
Hi zero, thanks for stopping by, (cuz I know your busy), with the final fix.
Now I have the new kernel and can reach the desktop.
And by the way .. ..LMDE with MATE (or Mate .. heh) is AWESOME.
All those complaining for the last few months hopefully will be quieted down now.
