You cannot upgrade from 3.19 to 4.4 directly as far as I know. You will have to install it new from the LL 3.0 iso. Your 3.19 kernel looks up to date, and cannot be upgraded, so do not update, other than ubuntu security if any are available that will install. If not? Ignore.

Using the commands I listed; on my LL2.8 I have upgraded the kernel from 3.19(or earlier) to 4.4, 4.5 and 4.6.. Its a 64-bit.. (Listed in the thread I posted)..
Doesn't the command
Code:
sudo apt-get install linux-generic
only update that version or series of kernel??
- I don't know, I'm just asking...
firenice03 is probably correct on the linux-generic command. It may only update within a series instead of upgrading or changing to another series. What he listed should get you to 3.13 or 4.4, depending on what you want. Version 3.19 is at "end of life" this month, so you do have to make a move if you want to stay on a supported kernel.
I concur with the suggestion to create a Systemback restore point ahead of time.
