Ah, now I see the problem. Are you sure the old server is running 14.04? 
Then there must have been an error during the upgrade from a previous 
release because the default kernel for 14.04 was 3.13.0. Do you have the 
package linux-generic or linux-server installed on the old machine?

Anyway, I'm not sure if 14.04.2 would include linux-generic-lts-utopic 
or the standard linux-generic.
